EFI could not get loaded image device path protocol: Error 0x7f39e083 (http://ipxe.org/7f39e083)

So, the Mac's UEFI is missing EfiDevicePathToTextProtocol and EfiHiiDatabaseProtocol. Neither of these are actually critical to iPXE's functionality: it would definitely be possible to modify iPXE to continue running if these protocols are missing.
