If anyone has, it'd be SEKIYA-san, but I wouldn't assume that it  
should work. Even in sgimips/sgimips/console.c there's the interesting  
line:

     panic("ip32 supports serial console only.  sorry.");

I don't know what makes IP32 special such that ARCS won't function as  
console, but it seems to indicate that you're treading on new ground.  
Feel free to make it (and the framebuffer!) go, however ;)
