I went to do this, and found that ipxe is already only built if ROMBIOS is
enabled and ROMBIOS is disabled by default if qemu-trad is not enabled
(which it is not in the Debian packaging).
So I think this is already addressed! I don't think it is worth at this
point allowing to control ipxe separately from ROMBIOS (or at least such a
task is nowhere near the top of my todo list).
