Thanks for your help, Guillaume and Tony. It turned out that the system was frozen. Login works as expected on ttyS0.
Unfortunately the kernel coming with the cubieboard-image (3.4.29) has issues but I can't tell for sure what it is. I suspect the wemac ethernet driver. I compiled a new kernel (3.4.43) from the sunxi sources at github. It works but it still has issues. Anyway I can boot beyond the login now.
