Problem exists still as of r1917. I've attached a rediffed version of Vladimir's patch. The behaviour without the patch changed (it's even more confusing), but it's basically still the same:
grub> echo "$root"
grub>"

    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The problem is reproducible with this example:
set blub=blob
echo $blub
blob
echo "${blub}"
blob
echo "$blub"

=> fails, the closing quote is ignored
echo "$blub""
blob
=> works as workaround

The real trouble starts with strings containing spaces. But it can be fixed,
as shown, by adding another quote at the end or using ${...}.

This was tested with beta~4.
