The code also extracts port descriptions, driver information and versions, detects conditions like ports existing but not plugged in (eg USB devices). Have a look at http://bitpim.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/bitpim/trunk/bitpim/src/comscan.py?view=markup which you can run standalone. It is currently GPL2+ but if that is a problem email me and I'll relicense. I already did all the work for you several years ago as part of BitPim.
