 I fail to reproduce the bug. Here is what I tried, do you see
 any error?
 
 I prepared a /home/manu/tftp folder where I copied 
 amd64/binary/kernel/netbsd-GENERIC.gz
 i386/installation/misc/pxeboot_ia32.bin
 
 both taken from:
 ftp://ftp.fr.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/201912160120Z/
 
 Then I ran
 qemu-system-x86_64 -m 256M -nographic -s -boot n -device e1000,netdev=n1 \
   -netdev user,id=n1,tftp=/home/manu/tftp,bootfile=/pxeboot_ia32.bin
