Access to a Serial Port using Java RXTX library

[Loïc Minier]

Hi Jenny,

The INSTALL file <https://github.com/rxtx/rxtx/blob/development/INSTALL>
suggests that RXTX implements custom locking which requires OS integration;
because you want your app to be the only one accessing the serial port(s),
you should build RXTX with --disable-lockfiles to disable this feature of
the library.

Cheers,
- Loïc
