My read thread has a call to WaitCommEvent that used to get an event
when I closed the port using CloseHandle. This worked for CE 3.0 and
4.2. Now I loaded my app on a 5.0 device and it doesn't seem to
return. Does anyone know if there were any changes in 5.0 for this?
I didn't see anything about it in the documentation.

Thanks.
