I have found that on my MPC8272 system running 2.6.28 & cuImage, the
/chosen/linux,stdout-path node is respected by the boot wrapper, but the
main kernel always uses the first serial port mentioned in the device
tree as the console.  If you have multiple serial ports in your .dts,
try re-ordering them.
