Dear Maintainer,

The sdcard support is new in seabios 1.8 and used only by Qemu. Recent
version of qemu use the 256k rom. I suggest to disable the sdcard
by adding SDCARD=n in debian/rules during the build of the 128K rom.

For last debian version actually it's not an issue because GCC optimization
success to keep the size under 128K. But when trying to backport it to an
ubuntu 14.04 LTS I got the issue. I think this can help you to free some
space in prevision of futur seabios releases.

Thanks a lot for your hardwork
