It's related to the 'console' support inside of the serial driver / kgdb
stub.  The best way, IMHO, around this is to use the 'kgdb_demux'
script.  I don't have the URL handy, but google knows.

I have found it in
http://linux.junsun.net/porting-howto/src/kdmx-1.02.tar.gz

but I'm still unable of making it work. I seems fine when the kernel is
loading, but it begins to do funny thing when we move to userland.

Is this 8xx or something else?  For 8xx, currently console output ALWAYS
goes to KGDB, if KGDB is enabled.  When the next 2.4.21-pre release
comes out, this behavior will change.  I suspect 8260 behaves in a
similar manner, but I don't have the HW to test it, so I did not make a
similar change there.
