I'm wondering... /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf on my Fedora contains
the NVRAM paths actually used by the driver[1], but I don't
see anything in our build system that would update qemu.conf to
reflect the value of the --with-loader-nvram configure option.
Is the file simply statically patched by Fedora? Should we
come up with an upstream solution that updates the file
automatically at build time?

Most importantly... Why are those paths so ugly and
inconsistent? :S

ACK


[1] There are actually two entries, only the second one has
    the right paths
