IIRC you're using gentoo, which is what I happen to have too :-)
And looking into my system I can see this file:
/usr/share/qemu/firmware/50-edk2-x86_64-secure.json
which defines this pair:
{
     "mapping": {
         "device": "flash",
         "executable": {
             "filename": "/usr/share/qemu/edk2-x86_64-secure-code.fd",
             "format": "raw"
         },
         "nvram-template": {
             "filename": "/usr/share/qemu/edk2-i386-vars.fd",
             "format": "raw"
         }
     },
}
I'm not sure if this is a bug though. The NVRAM has a defined structure 
and possibly is 32/64bit agnostic (on Intel at least).

maybe so, I need to check on the AMD system to verify if it the same.

thanks for the info,

Dagg.
