runtime did not work and gave a "General System Error".
  Jan Kloetzke provided a temporary work around, the area
  which the BIOS can access is enlarged, although according to
  specs, this should not be needed.
* After switching modes in the VESA driver, turn on write
  combining for the frame buffer area. This gives a huge speed
  boost for all graphics drawing. Only people for which mode
  changes did not work were using the full speed since the
  VESA mode switching support was added.
* Cleanup in the Jamfile, some header directories were included
  multiple times.
