Package: gnu-efi


gnu-efi apparently needs some patching to work with Intel Macs.

http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=11354&st=0&p=82447&#entry82447

The linker script in the GNU environment discards some important information. 
To produce working executables, add
*(.gnu.linkonce.*)
somewhere in the linker script's .data section. Mine works with it located here:
*(.sdata)
*(.gnu.linkonce.*)
*(.got.plt)



I've not yet verified it yet, but I intend to soon.
