do you have x86-64 support enabled in these binutils? This breaks
relocations 32->16bit.

src/cpu/i386/reset16.inc is the culprit. See the freebios2 tree
for a wild but working implementation of reset16.inc. The
"jmp _start" is there implemented as:
reset_vector:
/* jmp _start */
.byte 0xe9
.int _start - ( . + 2 )
This should also be changed in the old LinuxBIOS tree. It works fine.
