OK this is getting strange or I'm missing something obvious!

I checked the two affected c source files manually to confirm the changes had been made.
I've just done a redownload, repatch, and recompile of qemu2.0.0...

Then I noticed bios.bin & vgabios*.bin are already compiled in the qemu-2.0.0.tar.bz2 in the "pc-bios" directory. The md5sums of all those files matches the ones "make install" copies over (even on a patched source)!

Am I missing a ./configure flag to force the bios files to recompile?

Thanks again!

The log indicates the SeaVGABIOS that was used predates the PACKED
fix.  The fix went in after rel-1.7.4 - it's in commit f5ec1e0a.  How
did you confirm the fix was applied?
