I don't have the build environment to create a full binary image, and the code will need a LOT of work to actually become part of mainline cgminer it seems, but for the time being here is a link to a bugfixed binary of cgminer 4.6.0 for the S3 based on the bitmain code. Copy the file into /usr/bin/ on the S3 overwriting the existing one:
http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/antminer/s3/4.6.0-140908/cgminer

@CKolivas  Thank you!

I just sent you a small tip to your address.

BTW: I been using the new bin for a couple of hours now without issues.

For those that wan't to update their binary, I used these commands:

 cd /usr/bin/
 mv cgminer cgminer.original
 wget http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/antminer/s3/4.6.0-140908/cgminer
mv cgminer cgminer-ants3-4.6.0-140908-kolivas
 chmod +x cgminer-ants3-4.6.0-140908-kolivas
 ln -s cgminer-ants3-4.6.0-140908-kolivas cgminer
/etc/init.d/cgminer restart

This way, the reboot is not necessary + you can keep a good name to describe the new binary.

Cheers!
