This is fixed in the grub package in Debian, so merging that into Ubuntu
would solve this problem. However, the grub package has gone quite a
long time without merge so this would be a lot of work - and bring with
it the question of whether the grub package should automatically upgrade
to grub-pc by default (which it now does in Debian).
I was unfamiliar with PyGrub. It appears to be a tool that parses the
menu.lst and feeds the kernel information directly to the xen host for
booting. That's certainly a use case that's difficult to address with
grub2! It seems that PyGrub does have support for grub.cfg instead of
menu.lst nowadays, but that it will take some time before all hosting
providers are running it.
