Limine 3.9.2 compiled in OpenEmbedded

EasyOS 4.2.2 has Limine 3.7.3, as I was unable to compile 3.8+ in OE:

However, the latest, 3.9.2, has important fixes, so had another go at compiling. One of the main Limine developers, mintsuki, informed me that 3.9.2 has fixed the bug in the snapshot here:

Yes, mintsuki is reading the Puppy Forum!
