Summary:                    Outdated syslinux links.
Description: 
When configuring for pxelinux or syslinux images, build fails because
syslinux has since been updated and the version number buildroot looks for
is no longer at kernel.org.
Changing the version number and commenting out the bit about the patch, in
the buildroot/target/x86/syslinux/syslinux.mk file causes the build to
complete succesfully, but I don't know what the patch was doing, so it
might not do what it was intended to anymore.

Patch to bump the syslinux version to 3.72, update the makefile patch, and
fix a couple of "printf"s that were throwing errors during the compile.

Not sure if the printf issues are uClibc specific or the patch should be
pushed upstream?
