You can try writing characters to the serial console in src/arch/x86/c_start.S. Do you have the ability to read post codes? That's the best way to know how deep you are getting through c_start.S in the jump to ramstage.
Thanks to a servo board, I can read the port 80 codes and verified that the instruction causing the problem is the lgdt / jmp combo in c_start.S:
_start: cli lgdt %cs:gdtaddr #ifndef __x86_64__ ljmp $0x10, $1f #endif 1: movl $0x18, %eax // <---- never reached with relocatable
[...] I'm not sure why it's crashing (or just not spitting anything out). You could certainly try disabling RELOCATABLE_RAMSTAE and see if that fairs better.
It looks like CONFIG_SOC_INTEL_SKYLAKE forces relocatable ramstage; I've modified src/soc/intel/skylake/Kconfig to disable it and now it makes it all the way into the payload.
And by adding the i915 driver to the Linux payload, it is able to bring up the console in a miniscule font!

I'm declaring today a huge success!
