I see what you mean now - I had been looking at some of the other BIOS
calling functions in there at the top of the code which are not absolutely
necessary; but I see now stripping out all the BIOS calls is unavoidable
because of the polling required.

I suppose the only alternative then would probably be to port the code to
x86_64 assembly at some distant point in the future.

Sorry about the noise.
