Mmm, this might be unrelated (haven't had a chance to test any post-renaming
kernels yet), but I've always been wiring my db9f->rj45 bits as:

 1 nc
 2 yellow
 3 black
 4 orange
 5 geen/red (soldered together)
 6 brown
 7 blue
 8 white
 9 nc

I'd be interested in finding a document with a simple list of all the possible
pinouts for serial bits and what to use them for.  It would probably help me
remember things too.  Now I always have to demolish an old connector when I
set out to make some new ones...

But this has nothing to do with your pin1 mystery :-o
