It means we've given up on that. Such environments are rare these days, as far as I know, so unless someone shows up with something that works perfectly with a qemu testing recipe that we can roll it into out test bed. Plus some kind of info on real hardware that does this that's popular enough to justify inclusion.

As this question seems to be asked a lot on the forums, does this mean
we will never support the 32bit efi booting 64bit OS?

Yes. It means we'v= e given up on that.
