A little followup: after a short and interesting chat together with Colin Watson (CCed on his request) on #debian-boot, it sounds that the removal of grub legacy is not a valid option currently (Xen support, etc). Given that the fixes needed to get Grub legacy built with gcc-4.6 have been pushed to Ubuntu, he agreed to "get the relevant bits merged". Thanks ! To others readers of this RC bug: don't upload grub with the too simple patch I proposed previously; as the LP:#837815 bug shows, this will simply not work and lead to uninstallable grub. (aka "disaster"). Cheers, OdyX [LP:#837815] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/837815
