Never mind.  Here's the debug output for the curious:

A:\>syslinux c:
argv = 00006eb0
argv[0] = 00006eac = ""
argv[1] = 00006ead = "c:"
argv[2] = 00000000 = "= "    ( <- ASCII garbage, actually; it's not 
really an equals sign)
DOS version 7.10
Trying lock 0103... err 0001
Trying lock 0403... ok 440d
read_device(3,00006ca0,1,0)
rv = 0207
Trying unlock 0000... ok 440d
syslinux: sector read error

A:\>echo fooey.
