PROLL does not emulate Zilog. It only sets up the OF tree
and leaves the OS free to use it. So, PROLL's code is fairly
useless for your purpose. OpenBIOS, I do not know.
But I do not see any need to emulate zs at all, if you plan
for paravirtualization. Just add a driver to Linux for some
kind of /dev/hvc (bonus points for making it compatible with
PPC64).
If you want to run binary Solaris in a full virtual setting,
then it's different. Otherwise, use OpenSolaris and add the
same hvc there.
