The workaround of copying ldlinux.c32 does not work.  The problem as
documented upstream in
http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2015-September/024305.html still
exists; see below my configuration*.

What happens after copying ldlinux.c32 to /tftpboot:
- the system attempts to execute the default boot option from the 
pxelinux.cfg/default menu, no matter what I type at the boot prompt
- if I make booting a kernel over http the default option, boot fails with the 
message:
"Loading 
http:////nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/linux...
 failed: No such file or directory" (no matter what I type at the boot prompt)

What happens after removing /tftpboot/ldlinux.c32 and copying gpxeboot.0 from 
an ubuntu 14.04 machine:
- system boots as expected.
