[ full quote for seabios list ]

Re-ran test on x86-64 box -> works.
Tried on aarch64 machine -> fails.

Given the arch list above this pretty much looks like it is tcg-related,
even though a quick check with "qemu -accel tcg -cdrom /some/live/iso"
(on x86_64) doesn't show any obvious problems.

Recompiled seabios with gcc 4.8 instead of gcc 8
  -> Works on both x86-64 and aarch64.
  -> I'll redo the pull request with that.

I'll go try find the root cause next week.  On a quick glance this
looks like a bug in tcg or gcc.  In case anyone has hints what might
have caused this drop me a note.

thanks,
  Gerd
