Mac OS X's AppleSCCSerial kernel extension requires the slot-names property in order to use any serial ports. This patch adds the property.
After this patch is applied, the next thing that stops Mac OS X from using the serial port is something having to do with DMA.
Great!
You can assign addresses for serial DMA and even OS 9 will try poking at the dbdma controller, so this is just a question of hooking up the qemu side. I can try doing this later today if it's useful..
Which version of OS X are you using for testing this?
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/AppleSCCSerial/AppleSCCSerial-126.4.0... In this file the setPortName() function is what does the searching for slot-names.

Weird. Is this meant to be \x00\x00\x00\x01Modem? (I see that the OS X code you linked is just skipping the first four bytes. And it hardcodes the PowerMac1,1 case I switched to for my own testing, heh..!)

If so, I guess you have to replace the strlen with a hard-coded length.
(Shouldn't the slot-name only be set to a string for one channel? Maybe it doesn't matter?)
