[syslinux] SYSLINUX 3.11-pre8 -- release candidate

[Samuel Clements]

Well, that was easy - the breakage appears to occur moving from 
3.10-pre21 to 3.11-pre1. Sorry I didn't catch this earlier. It's kinda 
hard to try each and every pre as they come out, and there have been a 
lot over the last few days! ;)
