>From what I can tell, the global default kdb serial-port start string
is ctrl-A:

kdb/kdbmain.c: line 223
const char kdb_serial_str[] = "\001";

Unfortunately, I use (as surely others must) minicom to talk to the
serial port, and ctrl-A is the minicom attention character.  To work
around this, the ppc64 port traditionally used "startKDB" as the 
serial string; but now that this is architecture generic code, 
its a stickier issue ... 

--linas

p.s. I've got ppc64 kdb-4.3/2.6.4-rc1 linking now, will test shortly.
