Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Arduino IDE 1.x with an attached board, comparing the Tools>Port dropdown with the port shown in the lower-right status area. Use the attached screenshot as the expected symptom; done means the recognized board port appears in the Tools>Port list and can be selected.
