Yes, that one does indeed fix the problem! (That diff alone -- I reverted the first one.) I also tested that kernel on another machine in BIOS mode; doesn't seem to cause any problems there. Thanks a bunch! On a related note, since you are knowledgeable about EFI console stuff, I don't suppose you happen to know the magic necessary for efi_cons_getshifts() [1]? That is needed to allow "hold Ctrl to skip processing /etc/boot.conf" to work with efiboot. biosboot uses an interrupt 0x16 call [2] which I guess isn't available under EFI?
