Unlike the first version, aout is not a standalone command now, it's
just some helper function used by the bsd and multiboot module.
Yes, thanks!  I can use 'freebsd /boot/loader' now, and also the more
modern 'freebsd /boot/kernel/kernel' to load the kernel directly.

Most excellent work, Bean, and thanks again.

Btw, if you feel like it, you could write the missing add-on script so that
update-grub works (i.e. like 10_linux, 10_hurd, etc).

Hm.  Bean hasn't replied, so maybe you were talking to me?  I'm not
opposed to trying, but I don't know what update-grub is designed to do.
Remember, I've never actually installed grub2 to a disk or even attempted
it, so I know nothing about the grub2 infrastructure.  I just boot grub2
from grub1 and admire the result :o)
