SeaBIOS binaries are running on a wide range of qemu versions today.
Changing that is a big deal. People are not used to it, and even when
writing it to the README people will stumble over it. It also is pretty
inconvenient in a number of cases. For starters the usual way to
package seabios and qemu in distros is to have separate packages ...
