Thanks (I was mostly giving you a hard time, but I do appreciate the
testing :-).

Yeah.  Unfortunately, there isn't any way to know when the last bit of
the UART has left the CPM shifter.  The only method is to delay based upon
the FIFO depth and bit rate.  That obviously isn't implemented very well.
