No, the -M graphics=off was intended.

That's exactly the case.

No, the default machine of qemu-system-ppc is mac99.
And just to make sure that the g3beige test is really running with a G3
and not a G4 (i.e. mac99):
$ avocado --show=console run
tests/acceptance/boot_linux_console.py:BootLinuxConsole.test_ppc_g3beige
| grep motherboard
console: PowerMac motherboard: PowerMac G3 (Silk)
