I don't see anything in the BIOS that would be obviously related to
VGA.  Any idea what to look for?

Here's also some more information:

Before it switches to framebuffer, I see the following on the console:

PCI: BIOS Bug: MCFG area at f8000000 is not E820-reserved
PCI: Not using MMCONFIG.

The BIOS is ROM F.0A 02/16/2008 and Video BIOS 1471
