This may not be helpful but I installed that exact image into real G5
hardware and it worked great.  I am not sure what qemu does from a
firmware perspective but I also have ppc64le running with qemu and it
runs great.

Something fishy about qemu here.

I did a build of the qemu from sources :

styx$ /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-ppc64 --version
QEMU emulator version 5.0.50 (v5.0.0-2005-geb6490f544-dirty)
Copyright (c) 2003-2020 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers
styx$

That thing runs great.

What qemu are you running?
