> Debian already does what it needs:

not quite:
http://sources.debian.net/src/syslinux/3:6.03%2Bdfsg-4/debian/patches/0004-gnu-efi-git.patch/ 
only patches "clean-gnu-efi.sh"; applying that patch only does not solve the building error.

But removing the same lines removed from "clean-gnu-efi.sh" at "build-gnu-efi.sh" does in 
fact solve the issue and I was able to build syslinux.
The gnu-efi code was already there.

Thanks guys for your help
Pat

 You
 asked what else is needed.
 
 Patches are welcome.
 
 Debian already does what it needs:
  
 http://sources.debian.net/src/syslinux/3:6.03%2Bdfsg-4/debian/patches/00
 04-gnu-efi-git.patch/ 
 
 As an additional example, Mageia solves it for
 its development 
 environment:
  
 http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/syslinux/current/SOURCES/sysl
 inux-nogit.patch?view=markup&pathrev=600959
 
 
 If you are using Ubuntu
 14.04 and you want to use Syslinux 6.03, then 
 either:
 
 _ use
 the Debian relevant packages related to Syslinux 6.03;
 or,
 _ use the built-in binaries already
 included in the official upstream 
 distribution archives from kernel.org.
 
 Official upstream Syslinux
 will still be built with a specific commit 
 of 
 gnu-efi and using git.
 
 Regards,
 Ady.
