When I played with it, the code generated assumed the processor was in protected
mode. If you add that this mode is available for other processors and even for x86
using the bios would reduce its utility for very little gain (what part of the bios
would you find useful for code generation purpose, especially in protected mode?)
I'd be very surprised to find call to the bios.
