The LINKS stuff is so that you can run binaries from out of
the build directory and have them find things like the BIOS
blobs. In this case presumably a QEMU run from the build
dir wouldn't find its icon (unless somebody had done a
'make install' on the system in the past). Though something
doesn't seem quite right here, because the sdl2.c code is
looking for icon files in a hicolor/ subdirectory that
doesn't exist in the source tree.
