But here, Minicom has -crtscts, Gnat has crtscts
which is pointing at a difference in the handshaking.

I bowed out of this thread earlier because I have no experience with USB 
serial interfaces, or the specific Gnat library.
But this does look like you have to find a way to turn RTS/CTS 
handshaking off.

heh, there are so many combinations it used to be the norm to hack serial 
interfaces with a soldering iron. If all else fails, you can always short 
pins 4 and 6 at t'other end (assuming a traditional 25 pin D connector) 
to fake the handshaking. Not recommended with a USB port...
