I don't know much about Gujin, but advantage here seems to be that it has
capability to load elf files and that's why the attempt to turn kernel binary
into a compressed elf image. Why don't we then simply add an ELF header to
bzImage and Gujin and any ELF loader including Gujin, should be able to load
it? (As Eric had done in one of the implementations in the past?) Why to
create the new infrastructure?
Well, Gujin wants additional code too.
Putting an ELF header on bzImage broke some bootloaders (GRUB, I
believe), so that's not going to happen again. See the relocatable
bzImage thread...
