./syslinux/efi32/com32/cmenu/display.c32
./syslinux/bios/com32/cmenu/display.c32
./syslinux/efi64/com32/cmenu/display.c32

Is where it is in the latest git clone, and believe it has always been in
the syslinux from the kernel.org and the latest git versions.

The display.c is com32/cmenu directory. The code shows copyright back to
2004-2006 and is in the very latest git clone?
