AMIs need to have their boot mode designated, which created a dilemma: Faster boots, or wider compatibility? The recently added "uefi-preferred" option solves this: AMIs can be marked to use UEFI where it's available, but fall back to BIOS on instance types which do not support UEFI. This uses bsdec2-image-upload 1.4.6, which recently landed in the ports tree.
