This question is of general interest so I have copied the list.
Perhaps it will get picked up in a good searchable mail archive :)

16 bit entry point 32 bit entry point with jump.

Nothing.
The fallback image always receives control, and always transisions to
32 bit protected mode. It then checks whether it or the normal
image is supposed to recieve control, and jumps to the 32 bit image.
I didn't reuse the 16 bit entry point so that there is the possibility
of having an image boot both ways.
