[syslinux] menu.c32 and old syslinux options

[Jerry Nelson]

Ok, I think I found one issue.  I have my default menu, and that
Brings me into other menu's(configs) depending on which one is selected.
I have "noescape 0" in one sub menu, but it wasn't set in my 1st default
Menu.  I didn't include that in my first menu because I use password
Protection and the README.menu says you must have "noescape 1".

Anyway, I changed that and hitting escape gets me the "boot: " line,
Password still seems to work, but I still can't get the boot line
To accept my labels from sub configs - I have used "include mycfg"
Lines, but nothing.  "menu include" just shows all the labels, not what
I want.

That shouldn't happen.  Please post your config file.
