To open com ports with names greater than 9 on windows, port name should be passed to CreateFile in form: .\COMn

openSerial dev settings = do

h <- createFile dev access_mode share_mode security_attr create_mode file_attr template_file
h <- createFile ("\.\"++dev) access_mode share_mode security_attr create_mode file_attr template_file

I documented you could use extra backslashes when passing the COM-port, but adding it by default is a good suggestion, thanks.
