kexec on mips - anyone has it working?

I'm trying to use kexec on a ASUS WL-500gP router (BCM47XX, little 
endian MIPS) with a 2.6.25.4 kernel with some additional changes from 
OpenWRT.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me - when I load a new kernel and try 
to execute it, it just says "Bye" and the router is dead:

# kexec -l vmlinux
# kexec -e
(...)
Bye


I signalled the issue before in the past, with a 2.6.23.1 kernel:

Ideas? Ways to debug it?
