No dice on that approach if the SYS file is too big to load while BASIC
is running. Shrinkit won't work that way for example. Doing the rename
trick so that the right SYS file is the first whose name ends in .SYSTEM
is the sure fire way.

Besides, that adds needless complexity and time to booting even when it
will work.
