Should ipxe be page-aligning the initrd? Nothing _bad_ happens (the

I don't see any reference to the boot spec's 'kernel_alignment' in the
ipxe source anywhere (other than the definition). Should it be
respecting that for the initrd?
doc/x86/boot.txt talks about kernel_alignment in terms of the alignment
required by a relocatable kernel; there's nothing which (to me) suggests
that it applies to initrd images.
If you change INITRD_ALIGN (in arch/i386/include/initrd.h) from 4 to
4096, does that fix the problem?
