I must really apologise for the noise
I eventually found the origin of the problems mentioned in my previous
post, and the culprit wasn't syslinux!
I use a script to build and install syslinux and in this script I was
exporting a FIRMWARE variable like this:
export FIRMWARE="bios"
A variable called FIRMWARE is also used in syslinux's Makefiles and
having it defined (to "bios") in the environment caused the problems.
Changing FIRMWARE to GB_FIRMWARE in my script fixed everything and
build/install completed without a glitch (as always).
I can add that I was using this script since quite a long time and never
experienced problems: 6.04-pre1 must have introduced some change in
some Makefile that caused the problems.
Again, I'm very sorry for the noise
thanks a lot for maintaining and making publicly available syslinux
ciao
