Not sure I know what you are asking there.  The Mega88 fuses
are set to jump to word address $0E00 / byte address $1C00.

At the end of the bootloader I clear IVESEL and jump to absolute
zero, now using clr r30/clr r31/ijmp , which works.

If you are asking what is at address zero it is:

00000000 <__vectors>:
    0:  40 c0           rjmp    .+128           ; 0x82
    2:  59 c0           rjmp    .+178           ; 0xb6
    4:  58 c0           rjmp    .+176           ; 0xb6

the bootloader has this at byte address 1C00:
00001c00 <__vectors>:
     1c00:      19 c0           rjmp    .+50            ; 0x1c34
     1c02:      32 c0           rjmp    .+100           ; 0x1c68
     1c04:      31 c0           rjmp    .+98            ; 0x1c68

If you go by PC = PC + k + 1 where k = 0 seems like it should effectively
be
a NOP, jumping to the next instruction?  Not jump to some arbitrary
address like -436??
