--- Comment #1 from Warner Losh <imp at FreeBSD.org> ---
The statement about EFI variables not being supported is false and should be
removed from the manual.

I've read through the referenced discussion and can't find what, exactly, is
failing here.

what needs to be done that's not done? What parts of the spec are they relying
on that don't seem to being done? The only one I'm aware of is that if they
require BootCurrent to point to the BootXXXX variable for their software, then
we don't do that: we leave them set to how loader.efi was booted (shell.efi
doesn't care).
