This patch improves error messages in grub-setup, and adds a few
warnings when requested to install in odd layouts.
Since there was no facility to emmit a warning that is always

Hi,
I think there is problem with this patch. Consider ${aa}, the closing
character "}" would be left out.
Although you can remedy this by swapping:
{ GRUB_PARSER_STATE_VARNAME, GRUB_PARSER_STATE_TEXT, ' ', 1},
{ GRUB_PARSER_STATE_VARNAME2, GRUB_PARSER_STATE_TEXT, '}', 0},
so that '}' would

Hi,
xnu usage is quite complicated, perhaps you could write a wiki page on it.

Since the script split patch has been committed, this one should be
quite trivial. I'd commit it in a few days if there is no objection.
