I didn't think of that, yes maybe, but those two are the only arches
using grub2pxe; others use pxelinux.

Do you mean the #635877 fix making the gPXE workaround redundant?
(Specifically, it was disabling of the multiboot header in the
i386-pc-pxe target, by upstream 2.00). I thought that was already in
testing...

OK I will look into that. But already this has me puzzled:
packages.d.o and the PTS suggest grub2 2.00-14 in jessie, but bug
#635877's version graph seems confused...
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/version.cgi?info=1;absolute=0;fixed=grub2%2F2.00-1;fixed=grub2%2F2.00-4;collapse=1;found=grub2%2F1.99-9;package=grub-pc
I think this should wait until I'm thinking coherently in any case.
Would it be appropriate for me to ask for commit access to d-i Git,
perhaps for this, or likely for small d-i bits in future?
This might have been less effort all round, and I might have done a
better job of it, if I was less tired from fighting `git send-email` and
other Git fun these past 2 hours.

I'm not sure how the committer does this, but yes it's supposed to work
something like that if I send patches in that form; I suspect git-am(1)
is used.
Thank you!
