Public bug reported:

After updating Ubuntu 12.04.4 (amd64) hiding of GRUB2 menu not longer
works. The menu always appears for 10s.

Reson found in /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
...
adjust_timeout () {
  if [ "x${found_other_os}" != "x" ]; then
    cat << EOF
set timeout_style=menu
if [ "\${timeout}" = 0 ]; then
  set timeout=10
fi
...

if another OS is found, the /etc/default/grub entry GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 is
ignored because set to 0 in function adjust_timeout()

In my point of view this is a bug, because it's not longer possible to
hide grub2 menu if another OS is detected on the host.
