Bug#463765: debian-installer: Installer offers to install "grub" bootloader on PowerPC. Why?

Grub does exist for powerpc, grub2

an unsatisfiable dependency right now for powerpc so its broken. Has
there been any progress on this since:

? I would still like to use it on my powerpcs. Thanks very much.

It may have *meant* GRUB2, but what it *said* was GRUB. In any case, it doesn't work, and presents an impediment to an otherwise nominal installation process.
