As looks like fixing old grub is far away because nobody know what is
causing that issues, probably trying to get grub-1.99 ready for
stabilization would be interesting (we will need to do that sooner or
later anyway)
Ubuntu has used grub2 for 3 years, I am considering working on making
it stable for at least x86 / amd64.
That's good news. I think Gentoo has a policy on not providing
unmaintained software in the tree (they're getting tree cleaned.) Given
that Grub 1 is both beta software (it got stuck at 0.97, never made it
to 1.0) and unmaintained, stabilizing Grub 2 ASAP is the sanest thing
you can do, since even though it's also beta software, it's at least
maintained by upstream.
