Are you sure your DHCP Server is giving out the right server? What NIC
are you using (that the original PXE is on)?
Mine returns correct when I tried it as undionly.kkpxe, and when I used
it as a ROM. See picture attached, or here if it doesn't make it
through: http://node4.smart-serv.net/~brandon/ipxe-test.png
Maybe it's something to do with the DNSMasq stuff, which I do not have
running here.
