Btw, it seems we have several duplicated strings:
strings
generated-x86/objects/haiku/x86_gcc2/release/system/boot/haiku_loader|
sort | uniq -c | sort
(including 74 times "bad_alloc"...)
It could be interesting to compile haiku_loader with gcc4 to be able to
use -fmerge-constants :
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#index-fmerge-constants-798
That'd spare some bytes, and even if it still fits, it'd be nice to
allow debug builds to fit too...
luckily the efi branch one still fits, and it seems I'll need it since
the HEAD floppy does start in QEMU but not the EFI one.
