-* https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1623276 -- iPXE binaries bundled with QEMU 2.7 crash on KVM hosts that have no unrestricted_guest support. Radim, Bandan et al are working on the KVM insn emulation, while Laszlo posted iPXE patches to excise fxsave/fxrstor from the CONFIG=qemu build of iPXE. The iPXE maintainer committed the patches; QEMU's ipxe submodule should be updated to iPXE commit b991c67c1d91 or later, and the bundled iPXE binaries should be refreshed.
