OK, rev#4 (and hopefully final). I only renamed a file,
as per suggestion of Andrew Morton. Haven't seen anything
else worth changing.

Quick recap of the mods involved:

o Documentation/x86-hal.txt # added file
o include/asm-i386/eflags_if.h # added file (only used for VM)
o arch/i386/Kconfig # added one menu entry
o arch/i386/Makefile # added one ifdef..endif
o arch/i386/boot/Makefile # added one ifdef..endif

Diffs are available at:

http://bochs.sourceforge.net/tmp/linux-2.5.59-hal4

The file 'Documentation/x86-hal.txt' explains the rationale for
these mods and my case for them going into the kernel before 2.6.

No *.{c,h,S} files are modified.
