Unfortunately, the syslinux com32 apis aren't considered stable, so the
menu modules were calling things not present in older syslinux being
used to install the bootloader. I've hacked livecd-iso-to-disk to deal
with the problem as of yesterday and hopefully liveusb-creator will get
updated for it as well.
