This wasn't a bug in binutils (grub's configure message was in error),
and I fixed this in the grub package in 9.10.

grub (0.97-29ubuntu58) karmic; urgency=low

  * objcopy-absolute.diff (update): Remove .note, .comment, and
    .note.gnu.build-id sections from images (LP: #444703).

grub (0.97-29ubuntu57) karmic; urgency=low

  * cache_coherency.diff (update): Add Debian bug link.
  * objcopy-absolute.diff: Backport from grub2 (Lubomir Kundrak): take only
    .text section into account, as newer toolchains generate unique build
    ids.
