Supporting 16-bit mode assembly for the 386 is not harmful if it is
easy, but if it takes up a lot of time, then it might be better off
left out. Do we need to have a program that runs in 16-bit mode for
booting? If so, how big a program would it have to be? (I presume
all it needs to do is switch to 32-bit mode.) Might it be easier to
hand assemble that program than to add and subsequently maintain this
gas feature?
