There seems to be a fix for this specific bug in the 2.6.16 kernel source. This is an extract from ChangeLog-2.6.16:
commit d7f3945420b5d8114f2d4d85e90abe5063cc196a
Author: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh at kernel.crashing.org>

[PATCH] powerpc: Add back support for booting from BootX (#2)
ARCH=powerpc couldn't boot from BootX as it uses a "different" way of
getting in the kernel. This patch adds the necessary trampolines,
creating a flattened device-tree from the tree passed from MacOS, and
initializing the btext engine early for really-early debugging.

I'll try to build a kernel from linux-source-2.6.15 and this patch tomorrow.
Regards,
Niels Kristian
