I don't think that has anything to do with the crash (although I could
be wrong). Under all Unices that I've seen (which is quite a few), the
kernel (or equivalent) doesn't care about whether there are serial
terminals present, since it has nothing whatsoever to do with login. The
kernel usually just provides an interface to the serial port, on which
you can start a login program or whatever. The only way that serial
ports would be likely to cause the kernel to crash is if the emulation
is broken (and it crashes there on real hardware as well, so that is
unlikely).
