[Question #89025]: igotu2gpx 0.3.0 on Windows

I'm having problem with igotu2gpx 0.3.0 on Windows XP SP3 Czech - it can't open port created by the MobileAction driver.
The COM port numbers for the device are rather high (usually COM16 or higher) and says something like:
$ ./igotu2gpx.exe -d serial:16 dump
Downloading tracks...
Unable to download trackpoints from GPS tracker: Unable to open device 'COM16':
Systém nemůže nalézt uvedený soubor.
(the last message is a Czech version of "System can't find given file.")
The message is printed immediately. If I try to use low COM port numbers (real COM ports with no device attached),
it takes much longer and I get a different reply:
$ ./igotu2gpx.exe -d serial:3 dump
Downloading tracks...
Unable to download trackpoints from GPS tracker: Response too short: expected 3,
 got 0 bytes

It looks to me like there's some igotu2gpx compatibility problem with the higher COM port numbers.

Few observations:
- @trip works fine on the same machine (but I'd prefer using igotu2gpx for more complete export of data to GPX)
- igotu2gpx both versions 0.3.0 and trunk (see my previous question with patch)  work on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS on the same machine
