Yes. But, the version to go public will need some work.

I haven't tried the patch yet on actual hardware myself. It was definitely working on a vx800 dev board. UART support should be simple since serial debug is they way coreboot was developed on this board. I can't tell you if that dev board used the vx800 uarts or an external uart. Maybe someone else that climbed through the patch can tell you more.

coreboot for VX800+Nano

I skimmed through the configs and it looks like the uarts in the vx800 
were used.

I'm happy to post the patch but other developers wanted to check with 
OLPC one last time before it goes public.
