PXE starts the program it loads at 0x7C00 in 16 bit mode.
9load is really a 32 bit mode program that expects to be
running at 0x80010000.  We need a cross twixt ld.com and
9load that does the right thing, i.e., that knows to cross
from 16 bit mode to 32 bit mode and things its running
at the right place.  I'll do it and call it 9pxeload.
