Hi, this patch (copied from Arctic) allows Beech to boot with SSX
firmware. If there's a way to detect OpenBIOS vs PIBS (I've asked for
confirmation) then I think the Beech and Arctic ifdefs could be combined
in the file. There may not be though, and in the meantime this works.
Please apply to _2_4_devel.
