c888e59b84 The default search path for kernel and modules was bogus. It makes no
sense for /boot/kernel to come last.

2ae7c98e29 Change NOFORTH comment character from # to \ followed by space,
to make things more interchangeable between it and the FORTH case.

Perhaps requiring the space is a bit too much, but...

Nothing in the tree seems to produce loader.rc files with comment
line, at this time.

59549c5031 Fix autoboot. Now autoboot *always* show the correct kernel name. It
gets the name from the environment variable kernelname, which is set
when a kernel is loaded. For this reason, autoboot will _first_ try
to load a kernel, and only proceed with the wait prompt after that
succeeds. If it fails, it will abort immediately.

While I understand some may think this behavior undesirable, I think
it is, overall, the best thing to do, even if we do not consider the
aesthetic issue. Notice that anyone using the default loader.rc
already has the kernel loaded before autoboot.

On unload, unset kernelname.

Separate the code that tries to load a kernel from the list of options
to the function loadakernel(). It is used by both boot() and
autoboot().

18ee60a576 Remove the setting of sourceid from bf_vm(), as bf_vm() really has
no clue.

Set sourceid to 0 when booting, which is the correct setting for stdin.

Set sourceid to an arbitrary fd when include'ing, preserving and restoring
the previous sourceid. This is possibly broken(), as 0 is a valid fd. Maybe
we should +1 to this value.

This fixes the version problem widely reported.

7f562b6673 The loader was written so that if /kernel was missing /kernel.old would
be booted.  Due to a bug, this wasn't happening.

There is still a lesser bug in that the loader decides which file to boot
after the 10sec count down.  This means the bootfile listed in the count
down in is wrong in the case where the loader will boot /kernel.old.

is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
