Is this still a problem with grub2 1.96+20080704-2 currently in

Yes, unfortunately it is. I just tested 0.97-41 and it still has the
problem. The last version that doesn't have the problem is grub-0.97-32 --
I've been having to force downgrade back to that version and then keep the
package on hold.
Well, the old grub-legacy won't have much bugfixes anymore.
I just tried, grub2 1.96+20080704-2 -- I can't even complete installing it
Thanks for trying it with the new grub2
I'll bring it up on the grub-devel mailing list again to see if I can get
some help figuring out how to get this fixed.
Thanks, I wasn't subscribed to grub-devel at that time so I didn't knew that
Also, either grub2 and/or grub2-pc did not purge cleanly; it left a big mess
of files in /boot/grub/ after both were purged, which I had to manually pick
through and delete those
Please see #470400 [0]
If you replace grub-legacy with grub2 completely, i.e. not choosing the
chainload option
then it should have cleaned up the old grub files
If that didn't work for you then please make a new report.
If you just purge the old grub package and then install grub-pc they won't get
cleaned up
