You're right, I'll use a PIC with something like a 4-word program to receive a 
byte on RS232 
and then step it out on 2 DIO pins.  It always gets me that PIC uses 1 for 
input and 0 for 
output while the Cirrus chip uses the opposite convention.

I wanted to avoid having to add anything at the TS7250 end.

If I get bored, I can add things like checksums and additional commands to the 
RS232 data.
