This is very disturbing. I built the 3.16.7 kernel as a baseline using the
LFS-7.9 tool chain, and it doesn't boot. My grub just sits there, but when
I load the same kernel built with the LFS-7.6 tool chain, it works fine. I
built LFS-7.9 using jhalfs with the 3.16.7 headers per Pier's instructions
in the README.CUSTOM file.

I guess I'll start with 4.2 and work my way backwards.
