I just skimmed the code, and the TIARA stage1 code is for all practical
purposes linuxBIOS.  Their stage2 does whatever magic it does.
So to remerge the trees looks some work  but pretty straight forward.

The build options on the stage2 to loader would need to change:
I.e. It would need to build a valid ELF executable, and then we'd need
to run my elf compressor on it.  (To retain the features they already have).

We will have to see how compelling tiara gets as it matures.
