This is not a bug in grub-installer, but in grub itself which the grub 
maintainers do not want to fix. As it is specific to only qemu we also do 
not want to create a special case for it in the installer.

As a workaround you can install in expert mode and use grub2 which does 
work correctly with qemu in 64-bit mode.

Cheers,
FJP
