No idea what that linker magic is intended to achieve. You'll be best off
asking about it on the appropriate gpxe/etherboot dev list I expect. It does
build for me on both my x86_32 and x86_64 GNU/Linux environments. Otherwise
the best we can offer is an option to disable gpxe build, either manually or
automatically for non-Linux environments. Obviously it would be nicer to fix
the actual issue.
