[syslinux] COM32 boots...

Well, I'm porting Cygnus' newlib libc to the COM32 environment, and got
it to printf() Hello, World! yesterday.  The binary was 24K; 14K if I
used iprintf() [printf sans floating-point support] instead of printf().
 There is still a lot of work to do, obviously, but I was rather excited
over having gotten it this far :)

This should make it a lot easier to support all kinds of odd UI support
for SYSLINUX, for those that want it.
