Unfortunately it doesn't fix my regression. I still haven't had time to 
step through the various releases between 3.31 and 3.35 to figure out 
when it broke. For reference, I am talking about the thread I started 
"[syslinux] Regression in SYSLINUX 3.35?" which I never saw a reply to. 
I don't know if you saw it or not.

I have uploaded my (basic) setup for you to test with. 
www.shopcusa.com/testing/freebsd-test.tgz extract it to the root of your 
tftp directory, (warning: it extracts to a directory called boot). edit 
your menu / use command line and call boot/freebsd.0

You should see a bunch of errors about pxe_open: netif_open() failed.  I 
tested this with 3.36-pre6 and the problem still exists.  If I get some 
time today, I will see if I can track it down further.

Thanks for your help.
