FWIW I use loader.efi from head, installed as /efi/boot/bootx64.efi
and it works just fine, by simply defining PATH_BOOTABLE_TOKEN to
something that marks our (junos) bootable filesystems, no other change
is needed.

bootx64.efi has to be signed specially for the BIOS, and it verifies
everything else, so the same ESP content "just works" with
stable/11,12,...
