Thanks for your help & support!!
I've made this , and I have just one more problem that is:

I've made a new ser-sim.c file, actually It seems like ser-pipe.c but with 
empty functions for open/close and a _initialize.... function which is a copy 
from _initialize_ser_pipe() but that use the new empty sim_open() and 
sim_close.
I've made the gdb to obtain a ser-sim.o file.
I've changed the configure.in file to add this file where the other ser-** 
are. I ran configure , and I've obtained no ser-sim.o entry in the Makefile, 
where the other ser-*.o are. Not yet in init.c. 
But, when I've changed manually Makefile and added the ser-sim.o file where 
the other files are, I've got the desired init.c file , with the 
_initialize_ser_sim() function in its code. 

What should I do to make this clean from configure??

Thanks for the form!  I'll fill it 
Best regards, Miguel.
