but in arch/i386/boot/compressed/misc.c (see below), those things depend
on each other;-)

This is not enough:
To remove/rework the 'STANDARD_MEMORY_BIOS_CALL, ALT_MEM_K' you need to
look at the following files ('grep' is your friend;-):
arch/i386/boot/setup.S
arch/i386/boot/compressed/misc.c
arch/i386/kernel/setup.c

Right, the 'old way' isn't needed any more, its handled by the 'new'
anyway.
