Could you try the .c wakeup? I changed it a bit, perhaps that's enough.

Actually, I see a possible problem:

_start:
        cli
        cld

        /* Set up segments */
        movw    %cs,%ax
        movw    %ax,%ds
        movw    %ax,%es
        movw    %ax,%ss

        movl    $wakeup_stack_end, %esp

        /* Clear the EFLAGS */
        pushl   $0
        popfl

...if someone calls start as 0x1234:0, we are okay. But if some broken
bios calls us as 0x1:0x234, we've got a problem.

One possible hack would be to movl 0, %esp. That should put the stack
at _start, corrupting memory but hopefully helping you diagnose it.
