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.
