Squeak MIDI and Mac Serial Ports

Does anyone know how to make Squeak let go of a Mac serial port after it
uses it (say, for a MIDI interface)?  On my G3 Powerbook, I have one lone
serial port.  After using it for MIDI-ing, I wanted to backup my PalmPilot,
but it insisted that Squeak still had the serial port -- despite moving
back to internal synthesizer, and despite quitting Squeak.  I could backup
after restart.

It's not a huge deal (I don't backup that often :-), but if there's an easy
solution (a Mac-centric thingie? A Squeak expression to evaluate?), I'd
appreciate it.

Thanks!
 Mark
