You figured me out.  Now what am I to do?

I know check in the code....

The first pass at relocation is done.

I suspect most of the drivers will require a little bit of fixup,
and I haven't tested it under non-LinuxBIOS conditions.  But everything
__should__ work.

The changes to the BIOS calls are always in effect.  But the code
won't actually relocate itself unlses -DRELOCATION is specified.
