[Rxtx] reconnecting to serial device

[Adam Walsh]

Hi Trent,

That fix now allows me to call the close() method (I had to put the 
try/catch block around nativeDrain as well because the exception is 
thrown for me when I try and flush the output stream). When I call 
CommPortIdentifier.isCurrentlyOwned() it returns false as expected, but 
when I try and open the port again, I'm getting 
gnu.io.PortInUseException: Unknown Application. Any idea why this would 
be happening?
