Well, calling it grub-mkrawimage makes life a bit easier for packagers as
it brings us closer to a situation in which two ports don't conflict with
each other.  In debian we already ship a single copy of grub-mkelfimage
this way (grub-common package).

That said, in practice it isn't yet possible for two ports to coexist in
the same system, so it doesn't bring much benefit in short term.
