I modified live.py to pass -allow-limited-size to mkisofs and got past the
error point I had run into previously (before removing vdrift and uqm). I
won't be able to test the resulting iso on a dvd until tonight. If that works
I'll file a feature request to livecd-tools for this.

This isn't strictly necessary now, but if we want to add a couple of more
games for F11 this would give us some extra space to work with. Also
going forward it might be useful for live usb spins where there is room for
a lot more stuff.
