For what it worth with the current Debian UML package I get

$ linux ubd0=uml root=/dev/ubd0 eth0=slirp|& less
...
 Netdevice 0 : SLIRP backend - command line: 'slirp'
 mconsole (version 2) initialized on /home/bill/.uml/wksNEk/mconsole
 Partition check:
  ubda: unknown partition table
 Initializing stdio console driver
 NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0
 IP: routing cache hash table of 512 buckets, 4Kbytes
 TCP: Hash tables configured (established 2048 bind 4096)
 Linux IP multicast router 0.06 plus PIM-SM
 NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.
 Kernel panic: Segfault with no mm

Without the eth0=slirp parameter, there are no kernel panic.
So at least the error message has changed.

The host kernel has the skas patch from the Debian package applied.
