I was assuming from original posts that this was a special case situation of
_generating_ the data, not receiving it.

>So you have long stop bits.  Perfectly legal.  Also very common.

Correct, but you cannot rely on this being the case when receiving. If you
cannot do the necessary housekeeping in one stop bit time, expect trouble.

You may be able to do some of the housekeeping during the next start bit with
some clever programming, depending how much time is spent in the interrupt
routine.
