Quoting David Miller :
I was considering making grub_size_t long and grub_ssize_t unsigned
long. I remember that it required many changes in string formats, so I
didn't feel it would be justified. But we could try it again.
You should use whatever is the appropriate size_t/ssize_t type on

This patch integrates the generic Linux loader with gfxterm. The result is
that graphical mode becomes usable with this loader. Our loader gets the
