Locally I've had no issue running bbl with qemu 4.1 but perhaps there's something more specific that the CI script is doing. I'm hoping we will soon be able to replace bbl with the more actively maintained OpenSBI firmware. I have some pending changes that will allow us to boot FreeBSD with it, and after that I'd like to create ports for both bootloaders, which I hope will make the CI setup a little simpler and less fragile than building bbl currently is.
