I have located the problem.  It is related to the attempted inclusion of 
a picture by boot.msg - it turns out that picture was length zero and 
its attempted inclusion messed up everything.

Now, the reason why the picture length was 0 is again the same old perl 
UTF-8 problems in RedHat 9.  The ppmtolss16 tool is perl and when ran 
with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 this is what will output:
/usr/bin/ppmtolss16: Premature EOF at (319,212) of (640,256)
and the output is empty. After switching LANG to en_US it will be just fine.
