Yes. I agree as well. I was just hoping to say just that: EFI is barely

The net effect is that we don't want to install efi on powerpc on freebsd.

Yeah. The code before the change excluded mips and powerpc platforms, and it
should continue to do so instead of using the existence of a /boot/efi
directory as the only clue.
Currently bsdinstall bails out and leaves powerpc* in a half-installed state
because the die in the uname case propagates to the main script, so it never
runs the bits after the bootconfig.
So that was a deliberate choice to keep the list of places that know
about efi vs. non-EFI centralized. I'd prefer to just not make that
directory on systems where it doesn't apply rather than messing with the
installer. Do you know where it is being made?
