I should have been clear about which version I used.

I modified 6.03 and built with -mno-red-zone and that seems to fix the
problem.
I also tried 6.04-pre1 with the pre-built binaries and I did not see an
issue with that either.

I think everything in syslinux should build with -mno-red-zone as it is a
marginal
performance optimization that you will never notice in this environment, but
when
present may cause serious issues.

Jur.
