Booting with grub 0.5.96 results in no "mem=" in the commandline,
unless I specifically add one to the "kernel" command. It does not
matter whether "--no-mem-option" is used.

Grub 0.5.93.1 adds the correct "mem=" parameter automatically.

Both versions of grub report exactly the same memory map. Here are the
numbers:
