Just fyi...

/boot/boot[12] was already removed from 5-current, so it is safe to
remove from 4-stable also. However, 5-current floppy image has yet
another hack by hosokawa-san which introduces 'kernel module floppy',
and saves lots of sizes of kernel.gz itself (and have a chance to put
back missing device drivers described in GENERIC kernel).
Anyway, it's a good news if kgziped /boot/loader works fine. I've
tested with today's 4-stable /boot/loader:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 matusita wheel 147456 Jul 31 19:10 loader
-rwxr-xr-x 1 matusita wheel 81508 Jul 31 19:11 loader.kgz
wow, it saves approx. 64kbytes.
