'make release' as of Aug/01/2001 JST fails, since a kernel for
kern.flp is a little bigger and doesn't fit to a 1.44MB floppy.

The other day a guy (sorry I forgot who) says that
1) /boot/boot1 and /boot/boot2 can be safely removed, since these are
not used. It brings us about 8kbytes.
2) /boot/loader can be kgzip(1)ed. It brings us about (approx.) 60kbytes.
Hack 1) is already committed into 5-current so it's safe to do. Hack
2) is not yet commited to any branches, but I've tested with recent
4-stable and 5-current and it works fine.
