I can understand why this is proving to be an issue however I don't like
expanding paths like this at all. Might be better to add MLPREFIX to the
right dependencies and have the syslinux bits end up in the multilib
sysroot too.

Where are the updates this would need associated with it?

This had comments and is rejected as the option needs to explicitly
disable x11, not float.

This looks positively dangerous to me. Needs to get fixed properly and
less invasively or at least get an ack from Khem.
