This has also afflicted the desktop install I did of Gutsy Beta - I've
seen this reported as far back as one of the tribe releases but I can't
see that anyone bothered to report it here.

sda has my windows install
sdb was resized and had gutsy installed on it

Grub failed to detect the windows install on sda when it was being
configured by the installer. Unlike others who have reported similar
issues, my windows install really is intact:

This is a Dell XPS 700 with 4GB ram, Windows XP MCE installed, and RAID
turned off.

I've attached my grub menu.lst, but it's really not exciting; it has
what you'd expect, except no windows option was added.
