Remove the functionality added in rev 1.7.

Browse Source 
With no menu items the mbr_bootsel code will wait for the timeout (default
10 seconds) and then boot the default device - usually the active partition.
Forcing the 'active' partition was wrong - jmmv has a system which needs
to boot from hd1 where hd0 has no mbr partition info.
I suspect the problem I though rev 1.7 fixed was actually caused by
disklabel copying sector zero of the disk to sector zero of the partition!
Gains another 9 bytes of free space, mbr_bootsel now has 20 free bytes.
