Hi,
I build OVMF using
build -a X64 -t GCC49 -p OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc
As of commit 87bfeb11f84dd1d369bb2e195ef83d20b0d80d61 (svn 17428), I
started getting the error below. Apparently GCC cares about the
difference between UINT8* and CHAR8* when calling AsciiStrCmp().
Thanks much (and sorry about the dupe if this is already a known issue).
