Mac OS X is very sensitive to the value of properties in Open Firmware. One wrong value is enough to stop Mac OS X from booting. Since OpenBIOS has a ton of missing and different values for properties with respect to the Beige G3, I theorized that this might be the reason why OpenBIOS can't make Mac OS X run. Any help with locating the reg property for the mac-io node would be great.

It looks as if the reg property is generated automatically from the PCI 
registers during bus enumeration - search for ob_macio_keylargo_init() 
and macio_keylargo_config_cb() in drivers/pci.c to see how the 
enumeration callbacks work.

For testing purposes though, you could try and temporarily override it 
in the openpic_init() function within drivers/macio.c
