SoftwareSerial: begin(speed)

http://arduino.cc/en/pmwiki.php?n=Reference/SoftwareSerialBegin

Serial.begin(speed);
Serial.begin(speed, config) ;

My question is, how can SoftwareSerial use .begin(speed, config)?

I need one more Serial communicate with a Rs422 device.
SoftwareSerial .begin(38400,SERIAL_8O1 ) ;

void SoftwareSerial::begin(long speed)

As far as I know the only thing you can configure is the baud rate.

I wrote some code here to act as software serial - it is written for the usual 8N1 configuration but it should be easy enough to change it.
