I suppose I could have just looked on the FTP site instead of asking that particular question.. I forgot that there is a file named "kernel-config" that contains the uncommented .config kernel entries.. Unfortunately, CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE is NOT in there.. :( My experience is roughly the same as yours I would imagine.. I had to compile a custom kernel with this option enabled, then everything was fine.
