Hey Mike, you've mentioned that twice lately.  I know it likely doesn't
matter in this situation, but technically, C's main() is called from
stub code instead of being jumped to.  This is because main() returns a
value, an int.  Of course, for a custom OS, main() should never return,
therefore a jump should be fine.
