make[2]: *** [pnpbios_core.o] Error 1
make[2]: Target `first_rule' not remade because of errors.
make[1]: *** [pnp] Error 2

... which is the result of the expansion of the Q_SET_SEL and Q2_SET_SEL
macros.

My guess is that changing the macros so that they use set_limit instead
of _set_limit is what broke things, but I don't understand any of this
x86 segmentation voodoo, so I'm not touching it.
