FYI: I've done many installs on BIOS only machines using manual
partitioning (only replace.partition with 0417 ISO though, so older ISOs
only), without issue...

I think key is what Aaron said

> GRUB simply isn't installed when you separate /boot and / on a BIOS
machine with MBR partitioning

as most of my installs on BIOS had
- partition for `/` only
- partition for `/` and another for `/home`
without ESP and I can't think of a reason to use `/boot` on its own partition 
so I'll not have done that I bet.
