I don't know, the way pc-bios/ works seems just wrong to me. pc-bios
should IMO be its own build system with support for docker-based cross
compilers similar to tests/tcg.
In fact one thing I was considering before falling in love with Meson :)
was to write a simple meta-build-system for all of QEMU-owned ROMs,
submodules such as SLOF and tests/tcg. I never even got to the
whiteboard phase, but if this were done, we could just build all the
firmwares as a Meson 0.56 "external project"[1].
