A slightly simpler answer: I'm running the Fedora 18 3.6 kernel, with
these two patches backported:

commit f462ed939de67c20528bc08f11d2fc4f2d59c0d5
Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>
Date: Fri Jul 27 12:58:53 2012 -0400

efifb: Skip DMI checks if the bootloader knows what it's doing

commit a7d92035a1d64242cbc1f79577e66f230fe59732
Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>
Date: Fri Jul 27 17:16:17 2012 -0400

x86, EFI: Calculate the EFI framebuffer size instead of trusting the firmware

The F18 kernel has Matthew's stuff to handle PCI ROMs already
backported, although it's broken; it still prioritises the
IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW bit and returns 0xC0000 when there is a ROM from
EFI. You'll have to fix that too, so it matches commit 463edf567.

It still fails the same way — the Intel driver never manages to display.
So I'm back on my 3.5.0-based build until I have some time to work it
out.
