Unfortunately, this is the VM provided by the Windows Subsystem for 
Linux so examining it is nigh-impossible :/ I am considering bisecting 
the transforms that objtool does to try and figure out the one that 
causes the machine to fail to boot or try to reproduce in a different 
hypervisor, unless you have any other ideas.
