Ok, this was puzzling, but the reason is not that the .lzdsk rule has
gone away, but that it had not been updated to match the .dsk rule.
It seems that the rule to fix should look like:

%.lzdsk:        %.lzrom $(DISKLOADER)
        cat $(DISKLOADER) $< > $@.x
        dd if=$@.x of=$@ bs=36k conv=sync 2> /dev/null 
        $(RM) $@.x

if it's to match .dsk. I assume that $(START16) is not needed any more.

The whole area needs a good cleanup, but I don't know which prefix files
can jump directly into the .img. Eric, could we have a crash course on
how to jump into the new .img/.lzimgs so that I can have a go at fixing
the prefixes for 5.1.4? I assume $(DISKLOADER) works?
