Still have an itching to ask you to trim it down... Just build one
target to reduce your wait time to minimum.  If everything works
then re-enable all of them.

Should not you put /usr/bin:/bin at the end of the PATH? Or even
/tmp/qemu-install/bin:/tmp/grub/bin:/usr/bin:/bin? Otherwise you
may use during build not these tools which you expect.
