I don't know what it would be specifically, but having
dealt with similar problems on other Unix systems,
it's proably the case that zsh uses a particular tty
mode that isn't correctly supported by the serial
console driver, either due to a bug in the driver or
due to a conflict with some other feature enabled
on the console port. The next step to take would
be to run "stty -all" under /bin/bash and under
/bin/zsh on a telnet session, and compare the
outputs.
