    - Add a notice in THANKS for the people behind the PXE patch.

    - Trustful download
      - Download and check Release{,.gpg} against debian-archive-keyring.gpg
        with gpgv.exe (thanks to the GnuPG maintainers).
      - Check downloaded kernels and initrd's against MD5SUMS.
    - Enhance message for download errors.

    - Only build the standalone version if BYHAND is yes.
    - Document which packages in which versions are embedded.

 .

    - Make sure grub.cfg is always referred to as being in $INSTDIR
      (C:\win32-loader\).

    - Create variable d only on the CD flavours.
    - Define Windows register indexes as build-time variables.
    - Move bcdedit.exe finding earlier.
