That wont help - coreboot would be in the same situation.  The QEMU
hardware is dynamic, and it's very hard for any guest to create tables
that describe all the possible variants.  That's why I think QEMU
should create the tables directly - it's the only place that has all
the info on the hardware being emulated.
