Vladimir, long time ago we stated that this setup is not recommended [1] and I think we should not care about it because simply it makes GRUB maintainers and developers live more difficult. Additionally, IIRC we at least once talked about that at FOSDEM during GRUB Project Status Update presentation. So, I am against making conditional builds or other tricks to support outdated configs. I think we should take Leo's patch as is.
