Poking this bug. I just received this problem as a regression during my upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 (64-bit); issue was not present in 10.10 (system was successfully running grub2 before this upgrade). Can't find this detailed/resolved anywhere.
Relevant versioning lines from my dist-upgrade in case they're helpful: Preparing to replace grub-pc 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3.3 (using .../grub-pc_1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3_amd64.deb) ...
