There is a bug in some x86 implementations on the use of fs/gs - 
Prashant sent me a fix to work around this.  I also tweaked the
A20 handling to fix some bugs seen when the A20 change didn't 
"stick".

I'm glad that r5 fixed your problems.  I recommend that everyone
upgrade to r5 at their convenience.  r5 fixes several bugs and 
there are no known new bugs.
