Using iPXE from Git d3c8944d5c3ab262826ed33b16f3fc4dd43bc304 and the following 
Dockerfile:

FROM debian:sid
RUN apt update && apt -y install make gcc-10 git file liblzma-dev
RUN update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc "/usr/bin/gcc-10" 1
RUN mkdir /src
WORKDIR /src
RUN git clone https://github.com/ipxe/ipxe
WORKDIR /src/ipxe/src
RUN make -j8 bin/ipxe.usb
RUN file bin/ipxe.usb


I get
bin/ipxe.usb: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 4 : ID=0xeb, active, start-CHS 
(0x0,1,1), end-CHS (0x1,63,32), startsector 32, 4064 sectors. 
I haven't tested it, but I think that's more along the lines of what you might 
expect.
