Subject: Record support for binary serial communications?

Does anybody have any tips as how to communicate via a serial interface to a device that takes commands and gives responses in binary bytes rather than ASCII?  We are using EPICS R3.13.4, and it appears that streamDevice is not available, or would require some extensive hacking to get it to work. devAscii is available, but since it relies heavily on string scanning functions, it will likely choke on any data that contain null bytes.
