[syslinux] localboot in pxelinux recurses back into pxelinux then eventually crashes

[Vanush Misha Paturyan]

Hello list,

Is the issue reported in January by Denie Andriessen (email is below)
has been fixed? I'm seeing the same issue with pxelinux 4.02 as
distributed in Debian Squeeze. The network card is Broadcom with
UNDI PXE-2.1 v2.8.5.
