My apologies, I had searched the coreboot list and saw several posts
regarding serialice and (erroneously) jumped to the conclusion that this
was the right spot.
Re-posting original message to the serialice list:
I tried the instructions for getting serialICE installed, but ran into
two problems (patch attached solved both problems):
1) the configure script failed to detect lua, fixed by adding
--extra-ldflags="-lm" to the build.sh file. The output of the lua test
(with redirect to dev/null removed) is below:
sh build.sh
/usr/local/lib/liblua.a(lvm.o): In function `.L112':
lvm.c:(.text+0xb18): undefined reference to `pow'
/usr/local/lib/liblua.a(lvm.o): In function `.L177':
lvm.c:(.text+0x232d): undefined reference to `pow'
/usr/local/lib/liblua.a(lcode.o): In function `.L211':
lcode.c:(.text+0x1453): undefined reference to `pow'

Package lua was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `lua.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'lua' found

Error LUA not found, can't build with SerialICE support.
2) QEMU seg faulted when checking for kqemu enabled (note that I am
running 0.11.1, but I had same behaviour on the qemu 0.11.0 which is
checked into the SerialICE v1.5 tag). I'm guessing it is something with
my Gentoo install that causes the seg fault but if kqemu is not needed
for serial ice then maybe it is easier to remove it.:

The following patch fixed both my problems:
Disable kqemu since it caused a seg fault and is not needed.
Add libm to the LDFLAGS to make the lua test work.
