Thanks for doing this work. I think your reply is good, and hopefully
will make the syslinux developers change a bit their mind. If not, then
fine, we can keep the patches in Buildroot. I at least would like
people to try upstreaming the patches, and make reasonable efforts,
which you did.

Thanks a lot!

Thomas
