See the second last message in the linked Debian bug report, for the
Debian changelog entry which closed this report in Debian unstable.
Last one is for Debian experimental.
We create now fake devices. The generated grub.cfg will only work if
you're not affected by that search --fs-uuid bug.
I haven't yet tested how well grub-setup works.

Because 10.4 will be a LTS release, it mainly gets synced from Debian
testing and not unstable.
And unfortunately due to powerpc and sparc we have problems to get the
recent GRUB 2 builds into testing.
Maybe Colin Watson can make an exception and merge GRUB 2 from unstable
instead of having to wait until we get it into testing.
