Just to clarify:

On a x86_64 system with gnu-efi 3.0u I checked out tag
"syslinux-6.01-pre5" and just run "make". It failed with

  make[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/sysl/syslinux/efi32/efi'
  /tmp/sysl/syslinux/mk/efi.mk:27: *** Missing ia32 gnu-efi header files.  Stop.

I didn't expect that. "make bios" will run without an error, but I
thought it should be possible to build syslinux 6.01-pre5 with just
make (when gnu-efi >=3.0u is available). Or how should I compile a
version for an EFI-capable system (x86_64)?

Am I wrong?
