The following two commits:
_
mbr/isohdpfx.S: correct stack for heads/sectors; revert

_
mbr/isohdpfx.S: Clear CX on INT 13h AH 41h failure

c8df846924fd00e1ce2753
were recently applied to the Syslinux git Master Head.
Their respective two patches:

2423e52f5f69ecad8e2c0
http://git.zytor.com/syslinux/syslinux.git/patch/?id=8739e2ff9ba3f92652c
8df846924fd00e1ce2753
can also be applied cleanly to the 'syslinux-4.xx' branch.
Considering the following facts:
_ the above two patches have more (potential) impact on older computers
(than on newer ones);
_ the 'syslinux-4.xx' branch is being used by many active (Linux)
distributions, such as Slackware, SUSE, RHEL and their derivatives
(e.g. Salix, OpenSUSE, Centos, Oracle, Scientific...) among many
others;
I would like to request for the aforementioned two patches to be also
applied
to the 'syslinux-4.xx' branch in the official Syslinux git
repositories.
TIA,
Ady.
