I don't recall this happening last time I tested. Could you check if
earlier kfreebsd-9 uploads [1] also exhibit this problem? If not,
which version introduced it?

But if we add "Breaks: grub-common (<< 1.99-8)" in libgeom1, this
might prevent a backport of this library.
I don't think this is a Breaks relation. grub 1.99-7 was buggy because
it was built with a fscked version of libgeom which is no longer in
the archive. We don't need to add a Breaks for each buggy package
IMHO.
Closing.
