A minimal build of upstream grub-2.02-beta2 did *not* seem to show this hang/reboot. From their Git I checked out that version and then:
$ ./configure --disable-efiemu --disable-grub-mkfont --disable-grub-themes --disable-grub-mount --disable-liblzma && make $ grub-mkimage -d grub-core --format=i386-pc-pxe --output=grub.pxe --prefix='(pxe)/boot/grub' pxe $ qemu-system-i386 -net nic -net user,bootfile=grub.pxe,tftp=. this gets me to a rescue shell as expected. Debian wheezy's packaging of 1.99 works the same way. But Debian packages 2.00-1 through 2.02~beta2-11, hang.
