The somewhat static (no-initrd) kernel.org -rc6 kernel boots, at least as far as losing a fight with Plymouth / udev. But it does boot, which is more that the Ubuntu variants do.
Next steps: Build k.org rc6 using config-2.6.38-5-powerpc for 'make oldconfig'. If that fails to boot, then use config-2.6.38-1-powerpc.
Will probably take a couple of days given the time to compile and the time I'm available to play with the results.
