I first tried this setup with version 4.02 (then with a pxehain.com from
4.04 [?] pulled in to get around known bug, which probably was a dumb idea)
and then more recently with syslinux 4.06  on both systems.  I'll happily
try newer versions if they might work -- and give lpxelinux.0 a shot if
that'll work w/ my (vmware) systems too.
