how to redirect serial console to telnet session?

I have an embedded box with serial console. I have a debug version of a driver
that wants to dump so much stuff to console that the poor serial can't keep up
and I can't run other commands.

I would like to redirect the stream of stuff going to the console to a telnet
session over ethernet.

Accordingly, I grabbed what looked like the important bits of xconsole, but it
appears that this only gets me stuff written to /dev/console from userspace.
How do I go about getting the output of kernel-level printk()s as well?

Thanks,

Chris
