It's multiboot compatible, but with a broken multiboot header (defines 
a.out kludge while being ELF), I reported that issue, no idea when they 
catch up.

And when this is worked around (I patched out the test in grub2), it 
still doesn't run, maybe because some tables are missing in grub2's 
multiboot implementation (e820? no idea, didn't investigate further)
