Comment (by pulkomandy):

Please don't. There are still a lot of functional BIOS-only hardware
 that can run Haiku.

 It is not a short term plan but someday (maybe in a few dozen yeqrs) it
 will have to happen (for lack of hardware to use it with, if anything).
 Currently I'm running in BIOS mode and I don't plan to change that.

 Anyway, I was just saying that haiku_loader is specific to BIOS booting
 and other boot methods should not touch it at all.
