serialpps.sys is a very lightly modified serial.sys.  DCD transitions
trigger an interrupt and the driver looks at the "modem status
register" bits from the UART to determine whether DCD is asserted or
not.

I doubt there's a custom driver involved, so serialpps.sys hijacking
serial.sys's role should be handling it.  I suppose it's possible the
card doesn't wire the DCD pin through to the UART but I hope that's
unlikely.
