Yes, I understand, that's the point. If grub2 depends on grub-pc,
shouldn't this have updated as well when I updated grub2?

I noticed the grub problem on the initial install of alpha4 (or the
current daily build, I can't remember which) and worked around it as
outlined in the bug report.  When alpha5 came out, I did a dist-upgrade,
and then made a point of testing the grub configuration problem again,
trying the package maintainer's settings again before switching back to
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=1 when the machine wouldn't boot through.  After
this particular dist-upgrade, debconf was asking me if I wanted to keep
the existing /etc/default/grub or install the package maintainer's
version (I selected the package maintainer's version for testing), so
I'm presuming the postinst script ran grub-update for me?

In any case, the problem seems to be resolved now -- maybe the issue was
nothing more than grub-update wasn't getting run on grub2 update.
