along with toolchain enhancements.
aout2bb transforms a.out files with reloc information into bootblock format
files with a compressed relocation info.
bbstart.s relocates the bootblock using this compressed info, before jumping
to C code.
txlt changes some more of the absolute references to pc-relative ones (we know
we have a single code + data address space).
If you ever try to change this: don't even dare to change the compiler options;
they were found in weeks of trial and error as the ones producing the smallest
(not necessarily fastests) code.
installboot is just a script around dd, for now.
Some ideas by Michael Hitch, Leo Weppelman and Jason Thorpe; bugs added
by myself.

in a more elegant way, but it works as is, and we need it now.
- Add a README and Makefile for the above. Note that this directory should
NOT be added to ../Makefile's SUBDIRS.
loading into fastmem. This removes the requirement that the kernel fit
into chipmem.
Add a -Z flag to force loading into chip memory.
Add a -s option for compatibility with my bootblock loader.
Move the test exit to just before starting the kernel; this lets the
test mode actually load the kernel and do the version checks.

Now use amiga HW for soft interrupts, non-contig options (2 or many chunks),
interrupt handler lists, 4066 ethernet, 1291 scsi, option to defer level 6
interrupts to level 4 (deal with icky built-in serial port)
