In the source, they live in po/$lang.po and po/$lang.mo. However, when
you run 'make install', they end up in
$datadir/locale/$lang/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo. grub-install should be
looking at the paths used by 'make install', rather than the paths in
the source tree which generally won't be accessible.

You just misread my code slightly, I think. I'm actually copying from
$localedir/*/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo. My code will copy (e.g.)
/usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo to /boot/grub/locale/es.mo.
This seems better than creating lots of subdirectories of
/boot/grub/locale/.
