Good to hear that this doesn't just happen to me ;-).

The scripts are all at https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/.
This includes root file systems. The one used below is at
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/blob/master/rootfs/ppc/rootfs.cpio.gz

ml507:

qemu-system-ppc -kernel vmlinux -M virtex-ml507 -m 256 -no-reboot \
        -initrd rootfs.cpio -dtb arch/powerpc/boot/dts/virtex440-ml507.dtb \
        --append 'rdinit=/sbin/init panic=-1 mem=256M console=ttyS0' \
        -monitor none -nographic

mpc85xx:

qemu-system-ppc -kernel arch/powerpc/boot/uImage -M mpc8544ds -m 256 \
        -no-reboot -initrd rootfs.cpio \
        --append 'rdinit=/sbin/init panic=-1 mem=256M console=ttyS0' \
        -monitor none -nographic

Hope this helps,
