- Make as much of the makefile for each of the three flavours
(disk, CDROM, net) common.
- Special-case the libalpha startup module on its use in boot1, not
the other way around.
- Build the loader out of a "loader" directory

* Make it possible to type a filename to boot1 so that it is possible to
recover from fatally broken versions of /boot/loader.
* Make a start at a CD boot program (not yet functional).
'three-stage' bootstrap.
There are a number of caveats with the code in its current state:
- The i386 bootstrap only supports booting from a floppy.
- The kernel and kld do not yet know how to deal with the extended
information and module summary passed in.
- PnP-based autodetection and demand loading of modules is not implemented.
- i386 ELF kernel loading is not ready yet.
- The i386 bootstrap is loaded via an ugly blockmap.
On the alpha, both net- and disk-booting (SRM console machines only) is
supported. No blockmaps are used by this code.
