[ros-kernel] more code reuse

[Stephen Hodges]

There is an open source os written in 100% asm which might
contain some low level optimizations for common tasks,
similar to that of lib/strings in the ros source. Hopefully
it can help improve the performance of ros in general.
This requires a floppy drive to copy the image onto which
contains the full source: http://www.menuetos.org<http://www.menuetos.org/>

More sf.net findings:

These are the last bit of open source projects relating
to win32 driver development which actually has some
source code released. there are plenty others on sf.net
but they do actually have any releases.
