I just tested the snapshot from experimental (1.96+20090402-1) which
didn't change anything.
Afterwards I checked how recent this has been fixed. I guess Felix
meant these two commits from only yesterday:
http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc?view=rev&root=grub&revision=2081
http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc?view=rev&root=grub&revision=2083
The first adds FreeBSD support, the second is from Felix to add
kFreeBSD support, too.
Thanks for that pointer and thanks to Felix and Andrey Shuvikov for
(k)FreeBSD support in grub! Looking forward to see it in Debian and
therefore on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD.
Regards, Axel
