It does!  I should never have doubted.

After a rebuild, running "grub-probe -t drive /" with libgeom from
unstable produces no output and exits with status 139 (sigsegv).  I
assume libgeom could benefit from a symbols bump in addition to a
Breaks against the previous grub-common version.

How about this patch, for grub2 in experimental?
