It seems in qemu.git#master the edk2.git submodule is now mandatory.
For me it fails to compile. This is not a new error. It needs to be compiled with -fPIC since essentially forever.

But I wonder, why does it fail to compile only for me?!
Example of failure:

 $ grep -h CommonLib.o /dev/shm/*/.build.log

What do I need to change in my setup so that -fPIC is not required?
