Only partially connected:
I have run into trouble in conjunction with the rtai patches
and the no_console option regularly over a couple of years.

compiling is ok linking breaks on afair on ?*pcspeaker*?
and some other symbols. reported it as a bug with rtai.

Due to time constraints I reactivated the console and moved on.

Imho  TINY setup and RT patches go together on a regular basis.
so some breakage goes beyond the kernel.
