Parsing ELF isn't that difficult, and we can eventually make
something slightly bastard: that is a bootinfo script with
an appended binary (and not ELF) image of yaboot that knows
where to load it. That would make it easier for the forth
code to free yaboot's memory if it wants to exit & then load
something else.
