As far as I know, iPXE is not an EFI program, but a [great!] project
with a source code base. Particular iPXE build targets might be EFI
programs. I think some recent discussion in this thread was in regards
to non-EFI build targets. It's possible that the discussion is not
applicable for the ipxe.efi binary, for example. I could be mistaken.
