Hi Dylan,
I'm not sure if you've already figured this problem out, but the
CONFIG variables are set by Kconfig and would be in your .config file.
Looking at the .config file you posted I have no idea how you're
seeing anything coming out on serial from coreboot. The only logging I
see is to CBMEM.

It's going to be difficult to help you debug this on the email list,
so I'd suggest joining the IRC channel and asking there.  Feel free to
PM me if you still need help - martinr.
