Yes it did. I just tested it by providing --prefix=/home/kashyap/install
and yes 'bios-256k.bin' _is_ installed:

    kashyap@install$ pwd
    /home/kashyap/install
    kashyap@install$ find . -name bios-256k.bin
    ./share/qemu/bios-256k.bin

I see that it's a fairly recent addition[1].

Thanks for your comment.
