Looks like the boot up serial_setup is not right.  crt0.s is built from 
files specified in your ./mainboard/Avantech/pcm-5823/Config

the serial boot output stuff is built from this line.

mainboardinit superio/SMC/fdc37b72x/setup_serial.inc

Looking at the .inc for the advantech stuff and the config  and some 
grepping I see that the superio base address is set with SMC_BASE in the 
pcm-5823 but set with SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS in the pcm-9574.

What did you change this like to?

Go look at whatever seteup_serial.inc you have and see what option it 
needs set for the serial base address.

It may be as simple as adding a

option SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS 0x<base>

to your mainboard config file or you may have to make some 
setup_serial.inc mods for whatever superio you changed to.
