+Changes in 6.01:
+ * efi: Mark some symbols as __export otherwise libcom32.c32 and
+ vesamenu.c32 will refuse to load.
+ * bios: Wire up the bios kernel loader. It was impossible to
+ load a kernel from bios in 6.00.

+ don't try and build them as we run into build errors.
+ * efi: Reuse the initial TFTP client port in subsequent
+ transfers otherwise the server will send an error packet.

+ value of zero may be used.
+ * bios, font: Fix a font regression affecting some VirtualBox
