So what are you saying is, it's the <serial> that has the wrong alias
assigned? The output should be like this then?

    <serial type='pty'>
      <source path='/dev/pts/5'/>
      <target type='isa-serial' port='0'/>
      <alias name='console0'/>
      <!-- originaly was serial0 -->
    </serial>

    <console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/5'>
      <source path='/dev/pts/5'/>
      <target type='serial' port='0'/>
      <alias name='console0'/>
    </console>
