Doesn't work on MacOSX either: it says
qemu-system-x86_64: -cdrom http://boot.ipxe.org/ipxe.iso: could not
open disk image http://boot.ipxe.org/ipxe.iso: Unknown protocol

(a non module build works, or at least sits there without giving an
error message; I didn't feel like sitting there without a progress bar
while it downloaded a whole ISO image, so I ^C'd it...)
