However, sys-boot/grub-0.97-r17 installed fine once keyworded on this
(mostly) stable system. This may save time for others who come across
the same problem.
It has. Thanks Mick.

Unfortunately, an older system with only 50MB /boot partition did not
have enough space to allow sys-boot/grub-0.97-r17 to install all its
files and fs drivers. I ended up restoring /boot from a back up. YMMV.
I have a 250MB /boot partition and have the same problem, and I only
have one kernel installed at ~5MB.
I wonder how much space it needs in total now...
