Yes, there is definitely a wraparound. The other effects are pretty
much indicated by the fact that his use of mem= is not safe across a
hole (which he has at the top of 4G); this is why he should be using
memmap= instead and why I haven't really bothered dealing with the mem=
wraparound on Syslinux.
