Thank you for investigating the matter and for the feedback.

In short, the error message:

Failed to read blocks: 0xC

in this case was _not_ related to Syslinux.

This does not mean that Syslinux has no issues in such qemu / tianocore 
/ ovmf UEFI environment; it still might have. It just means that 
Syslinux v.6.03 was not the problem in this case.

Ady.
