Comment (by jessicah):

 Anyboot images do work with QEMU (old OVMF and new OVMF). I've also just
 tested both USB HDD and AHCI HDD with the latest anyboot image in
 VirtualBox 6.1.0 (although needed to specifically choose the EFI loader
 from shell for the latter), and it also works just fine.

 About the only regression I've seen is that Haiku shows up twice in the
 boot menu. Pretty sure this is why I had the device path end code there to
 avoid that happening.

 The fix affected newer versions of OVMF; older versions, such as linked
 from https://jessicah.github.io/working-on-uefi booted without any
 changes.
