Have you tried specifying the baud rate?

Please start with the latest kernel.  Upgrade U-Boot as well if you have a
way to recover if the new image doesn't work (e.g. a BDI).

You don't need the bootwrapper for the main serial driver to work.  You may
need some board-specific pin/port init, though at least the serial port
that U-Boot uses should already be set up, assuming it worked in U-Boot
of course. :-)

If it still doesn't work after switching to a current kernel, try dumping
CPM registers, instrumenting the driver, etc. to see what's going on.
