It's still there on qemu 0.11.0's "g3beige" emulation when you use 
CONFIG_SERIAL_PMACZILOG as the serial console.  (QEMU 0.10.x used a 16550 
serial chip for its g3beige emulation instead of the actual ZILOG one.)  Still 
dunno if it's a qemu or bug or a kernel bug, I just know that kernel patch 
fixes it for me, and it comes back without the patch.

I tested 2.6.32.  Haven't tried the 2.6.32.3 but don't see why it would change 
this...
