Well, gosh. That was EASY! Here's the simple steps I used to fix this; the sort of thing any generic user should be able to pull out of thin air. The gist is I booted to an xubuntu 14.04 live CD, mounted and chrooted to my normal system, then ran dpkg-reconfigure and update-grub. I selected both /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 (I think all I needed was /dev/sda) on the reconfiguration.
I expect SOMEONE will gripe about running on a root prompt, but that's been my modus operandi for doing rootish things since K&R invented the darn thing back when I was a yout.
