Well, today we are programming the address ourselves, so we
need to at least be self-consistent. :)

The future will probably only get more rocky, as we currently are
claiming to support QEMU >= 0.10.

Maybe if OVMF were bundled with QEMU and windows QEMU builds
were up to date, then we might be able to tighten this window
of support.
