I was actually digging about that problem. It is indeed present in
version 1.4.0, but is fixed in the current git master. The problem is
actually not directly in QEMU but in seabios, the update to version
1.7.2.1 commit 5c75fb10) fixes the issue. Maybe it is worth 
cherry-picking it into stable-1.4 (hence the Cc:). In the meantime
using bios.bin from master with QEMU version 1.4.0 should also fix the
issue.

What is strange is the seabios commit fixing the issue:

    commit 4219149ad2b783abfa61e80e9e9f6910db0c76c9

        build: Don't require $(OUT) to be a sub-directory of the main directory.
        
        Remove references to "../" and "out/" from the build so that "make
        OUT=/a/b/c/" will work.

Maybe Kevin has an explanation?
