In 4 and 7 I meant parameters passed from the bootloader to the OS.
With that, you also don't need to worry about "higher numbers are newer
version", as we can determine our own versioning, and load appropriate
features.
With that we can avoid alternative bootloaders with version passing like
13
Many of these warnings are for two reasons:
1) grub_ssize_t is != 'int' on sparc64, and many pieces of code
try to pass an int pointer in for the final arg of several
ieee1275 "get property" functions which take a grub_ssize_t
pointer.
2) The third arg to grub_ieee1275_get_integer_prope
This facility will be used on sparc because the bootblocks
I will generate will be in A.OUT, so we need to pass that
to objcopy instead of 'binary'.

In order for the boot block images for sparc to work properly,
we have to strip them out before doing the objcopy.
This is harmless on i386-pc and some other future grub
targets might need this too, so do it universally.

Sure, then powerpc needs the same. I'll unify both sparc
and powerpc in this way after my patches are added, promise :-)
If you need powerpc testing you can contact me. I can offer testing on
iMac G3. But I'm not yet familiar with powerpc.

Literaly years. More than 3 I think.
