Is there a kernel config option or some other quick-and-dirty way to map 
serial break to ctrl-alt-del (using a serial console, of course)?

I know you can drop into the kernel debugger, but I'd like a surefire
way to reboot a hung server remotely, a la break/sync on Sparc hardware.

If there's another/a better way to do this, that'd be fine.
