No. I will have to think a while about this. I'll send a diff for you
later this week. Do you think it will make it for 0.7?

BTW, I really think we should make the Multiboot standard more easily
extendible. Do you know the concept of Tag Items? It is used a lot in
the IP protocol, for example. The idea is that each item in the
structure looks something like this:

struct item
{
  int tag;
  int length
  void data[length];
}

This makes the data structure it a little more difficult to parse and
create, but the flexibility makes it worthwhile IMO. The downfall in
this case is that it breaks the compatibility with existing
systems. But I think the advantage is so big that it's worth it. What
do you think?
