Only qemu-kvm in squeeze build-depends on etherboot,
because initially it copied a selected set of boot
roms from etherboot at build time.  This has changed
in wheezy, -- we switched to runtime-depending on
etherboot-qemu package - both qemu-kvm and qemu.
etherboot-qemu provides a subset of all boot ROMS,
in uncompressed form (qemu can't decompress them
at runtime yet).

I asked to provide similar subset for ipxe.  I'm
discussing this with waldi right now, hopefully...
