New in version 6 of the patch set:
- down to 17 patches (squashed adding spec v2.4 fields
in together with adding v2.8 fields further down).
- switching to monolithic aggregate tables plus entry point
in patch 11/17, right after accomplishing full SeaBIOS
compatibility (in 10/17).
- Type 0 (bios info) structure continues to be optional. The BIOS
is expected to supply its own Type 0 structure unless we force
one to be provided via the command line.

Is *this* a hard requirement for merging ? I'm currently brainstorming
for ways to do this that won't be horrifyingly ugly, but so far everything
I managed to come up with makes me want to scratch my eyes out :)
Thanks,
Gabriel
