  Modified:    sys/i386/i386 locore.s
  Log:
  Remove gratuitous waste of 2K of memory for BIOS variables. We never load
  the kernel at 0-640k; we haven't had the ability to do that since before
  2.0R. Furthermore, I fail to see how putting an instruction at 0 and then
  doing a .org 0x500 is going to prevent the stuff from getting clobbered
  in the first place; a.out is just too stupid to know about sparse address
  spaces.
