I have changed the branch names around to better match current reality. The branches are now: syslinux-4.xx -- 4.xx maintenance branch (former master) syslinux-5.xx -- 5.xx maintenance branch (former elflink) master -- development branch (6.xx, former firmware) Hopefully this will help avoid further confusion. -hpa

There are a number of older branch names in the tree that are also rather stale. Either way, continuing to maintain a bunch of stale pointers won't work for very long. -hpa
