small problem in boot loader

There's a small problem in the boot loader that only shows up
if the last booted server is smaller than a single page (probably
never happens in normal circumstances). The boot program doesnt
round up the page after loading the last boot program. This means
the free_pfn will be the same as the starting page of the last
boot server and the OS will not load that server. Adding
a round_pbase() after the loop in which all the servers are loaded
fixes this.

(ran across this when loading some tiny test programs)
