Yes, it is still happening. It is related to btrfs - syslinux has a
bug and cannot boot my vmlinuz file. I am trying to find a simple
repro case for this problem, but still no luck. I'll post the error
later today.

I am the co-maintainer of syslinux in Arch and I am the one who
disabled it to workaround previous 64K btrfs limit. I've compiled a
debug version of Arch binaries and I use it right now.
