I'm more interested in what is there than just what is not

I'll note that on various type of systems, the (effectively)
ESP need not be specifically of "type: efi", possibly some
fat variant instead also works. (Of course, EFI need not be
the only alternative for various type of contexts.)

I'll note the /boot/efi is normally just an empty directory
that is possibly used as a mount point.

In some (somewhat older) configurations /boot/msdos is
similarly an empty directory and possibly used as the mount
point instead.

After source building to latest stable in the usual way, same error message 
'loader needs updating'.

This is on the guest
