Tracking bug.

dosemu2/dosemu2#50
https://github.com/stsp/dosemu2/blob/devel/src/dosext/misc/xms.c#L128
dosemu2/dosemu2#478

@andrewbird I've seen you were reporting some
bugs to the original freedos kernel, and even with
patches. How about moving them here and testing
your patches? Redirector works long ago, everything
is set and ready for a try.

Sorry, I missed this as I haven't been watching for a while. I'll try out my patch later.

kernel: fix startup stack location [#26]
a21e02f 
init_tos includes init_text, init_data, init_bss and init_stack.
Don't add init_text size the second time.
This fixes the crash with UMB at A0 as the stack then clashes
with this UMB.

config: fix build of UMB chain [#26]
8d70da7 
Add every new MCB as MCB_LAST, instead of MCB_NORMAL.
With MCB_NORMAL as last MCB, there is a problem: prev_mcb()
may "complete" the chain by finding the MCBs from previous
boot, unless memset()ed by dosemu:
https://github.com/stsp/dosemu2/blob/devel/src/dosext/misc/xms.c#L128
In this case umb_prev appears to be a link even when inserting
above umb_max, and umb_next==umb_seg, after which umb_seg is
overwritten with a link.
Assertion is added to make sure umb_prev is not link when
inserting above umb_max.

I think everything here is fixed.

And I'd say we are quite low on a bug count here,
so there are hopes to get out of beta this year. :)
