[syslinux] 2.10 problem passing user options

[Joel Ebel]

There have been issues with 2.10 discussed on the list.  You can see the 
archives here: http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/syslinux/
You can go back to 2.09 or use a pre-release for 2.11 until 2.11 comes 
out, which could potentially be very soon.
