"Big" disk image problem with current Debian version

Yeah, I know, replying to myself...

After rebooting my system, MacOS X will now boot again inside MOL. It 
appears something somewhere (in the kernel? dunno) gets tainted, 
especially if you use Ctrl-C or similar to terminate the emulator. 
Obviously, I'll want to _not_ do that again. Though I'd definitely hope 
there's some way that whatever "pollution" or whatever it is that's 
happening can be prevented, so weird behavior like that can be avoided.

Also, I will see how hard it will be to add largefile support to MOL.
