The problem seems to be the fact that the sparc64 kernel uses different names
for /proc/console and the actual console name:
root@landau:~# cat /proc/consoles
ttyHV0 -W- (EC p ) 4:64
tty0 -WU (E ) 4:1
root@landau:~# readlink /sys/dev/char/4:64
../../devices/root/f0299a70/f029b788/tty/ttyS0
root@landau:~#
And this is what used to make it work [1]:
*) # >= 2.6.38
console_major_minor="$(get-real-console-linux)"
console_raw="$(readlink "/sys/dev/char/${console_major_minor}")"
console="${console_raw##*/}"
