Are you sure there are no keys for com ports >= 10? In general, such serial ports are also possible.
In other places the symlink method seems to be limited from 1 to 9 (e.g. QueryDosDeviceW)
Nevertheless, more important: If I don't miss anything, the user still has to manually create a symlink in dosdevices/, otherwise this method will not work. Accessing serial ports on the other hand doesn't require any manual configuration when get_default_com_device() recognizes them (and the user has access). What is the benefit when it still requires manual user interaction?
I think get_default_com_device() isn't a normal way to use com ports in Wine. For example, I have /dev/ttyS0 to 31, most likely announced by my laptop motherboard, but would never intend to use those ports, which are not wired out. Normal usecase would be to plug in a USB-Serial-Adapter and make a symlink to e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0
