Not just bootup -- even after all the boot messages, if you're booting 
with console=ttyS0 then any other console messages after bootup (like 
application error messages and such) might also go to that device.  Any 
reason you wouldn't use the other serial port in this case?  Or are you 
already doing that for some other device?
