I can confirm this bug on Macbook 2,1 - I tried to boot latest Maverick daily live CD (64-bit amd64 iso) and it failed - rEFIt recognised it as 3 entries (Linux, Legacy OS, and some EFI64 entry). The first 2 result in a black screen with: ---------- 1.
2. Select CD-ROM Boot Type : ----------- The keyboard becomes unresponsive here and I can't go any further. The third option says that it can't find a proper EFI image and offers to go back to rEFIt.
