I don't think it's that as I was using the cvs snapshot of 28-Oct-2003.
I was expecting elfboot to print something to say where it was looking for the payload, at least, but it didn't... I think that linuxbios can't find the payload, and was wondering how it knew where to find it. I shall no doubt work it out eventually, but was hoping for a quick pointer.

Maybe this item in filo/FAQ applies?
Q. LinuxBIOS (v1 tree) crashes or fails to verify checksum when
booting FILO.
A. Make sure you are using the latest source of LinuxBIOS. It had a bug
that interferes with checksum calculation, until recently.
