OK, fw_cfg *is* active in your setup, although my own SeaBIOS build
(before my patch) isn't detecting it for some local reason. Perhaps
because I don't *have* any disks, so it doesn't set the bootorder. And
maybe doesn't expose fw_cfg to the guest at all? Or maybe just other
weirdness here.

Anyway, I *know* my patch breaks it because it's associated with
CONFIG_QEMU not CONFIG_QEMU_HARDWARE. Will modify, but not when there's
a 2-year-old shouting and climbing between me and the keyboard shouting
'Daddy Duddle!'...

Thanks for testing.
