Well, I personally do not need Forth to get my computer running, but I'd
rather like to see ACPI implemented.

Well, I'm not too sure about that. It would require a Windows user to store
some BIOS file on disk, which would be either on a Windows partition, where it
could be accidentally deleted, on a special partition, which would require a
partition entry, or outside any partitions, where it would be hard to protect
the file from fdisk.

Linking wrapper functions is the better way IMHO, since it would not require
too much memory and let us run OpenBIOS in the background of these OSs.
