FWIW this should now work if you replace the QEMU,tcx.bin file from QEMU
1.7/master with the one uploaded to this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1262081.

As OpenBIOS doesn't have its own git infrastructure, I need to get the
git.qemu.org git-svn mirror updated by Anthony in order to send a pull
request with updated binaries (Blue Swirl set up OpenBIOS to build as a
git submodule from the git.qemu.org mirror). I'll try and get them
updated as soon as I can.

ATB,

Mark.
