Being greeted by a lovely not-working console this afternoon
I have set about testing this on Tiger2. Here are the results:

Current tree (8bdbe88e422f):          Broken
Current tree - 7efb3a06c56a:          Ok
Current tree + Alex's first patch:    Ok
Current tree + Alex's first patch
             + Alex's second patch:   Ok
Current tree + Alex's first patch
             + Alex's second patch
             + Kawamura-san's patch:  Ok

So in short, while the current tree is broken, it
seems pretty easy to make Tiger2 work.

All of these tests were made with the following settings
(ignore the irrelevant ones :)

append="maxcpus=1 phys_efi com2=115200,8n1,0x2f8,0 console=com2
        conswitch=bb sync_console dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0_mem=1G crashkernel=256M
        -- clock=pit ip=on apm=power-off console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200"
