kzip was changed to load the kernel lower at a more carefully chosen
(lower, not fixed) address so that booting in 4MB works.  kzipboot
was changed so that decompressing the kernel doesn't overwrite the
stub that calls the decompression code (and is returned too).
Decompression now usually overwrites the start of the uncompressed
kernel but doesn't get as far as the decompression code.
