boots)

hi

this patch doesnt apply cleanly to 0.90.  at least here it fails
with a decent-sized chunk.

at first i thought i was conflicting with the other group of
patches already getting used in our grub package.  but i moved
this patch to the top of the patch list, and it still doesnt work
cleanly.

if you feel like fixing this, and submitting a *patchfile* this
time, i might revisit this.  unfortunately i dont have any more
time to deveote to this.  sorry.
