Changelog:
---------
April 1, '96
Made @@...@@ paramter passing working again for below 9000 running setup.S.
Now can have params behind the @-responsefile.
( such as: loadlin @linux.par image=other root=/dev/other )
Introduced file-suffix (preparing for compound .exe + kernel + initrd )

Mars 19, '96
Heap setting for video.S stuff (CAN_USE_HEAP,heap_end_ptr)

Mars 7, '96
Fixed bug in bzImage code. (finally found, what seemed to be vanished
in 1.3.71, but fortunately came up to crash on _my_ machine).
kernel/head.S does not setup %esp, it uses the one of boot/head.S,
and because this is pointing above 0x100000 for high loaded kernels,
part of the kernel gets destroyed on startup.

Mars 6, '96
Fix bug in LOALDIN (not recognizing 'k' or 'm' in mem=xxxK)
Some additional features and fixes in bzImage+initrd

Feb. 21. '96
Fixed bug in LOADLIN (not loading old unpatched zImages)

Feb. 20. '96
Fixed a bug in Makefiles, some as86-cleanups

Feb. 19. '96
added support for dd'ed floppy boot (for bzImages).
fixed some odd error output in loadlin.exe
