Hm.  With the 1.4P-ish source I have, you cant build a
biosboot_com0.sym after building biosboot.sym; the Makefile for the
_com0 puts ../biosboot/ onto its PATH, and it finds all sorts of .o
files up-to-date in ../biosboot, so it doesn't rebuild them locally.
Guess I should PR that.

But even so, and after pulling the keyboard and mouse, I cant get the
kernel to use the serial port for console output (e.g,. to print
boot-time autoconfiguration messages).

What am I still doing wrong?
