I have received a bug report concerning it's failure to build, which
I missed due to my installation of binutils being broken.
Here is the fix:
diff -purN
Another bug fix, this time it wasn't working with old, APCS26 only, versions
of the C Library, due to checking for the wrong error number.
diff -purN -x '*.mk' -x '*~' -x autom4te.cache -x configure -x '.#*' -x
'*.orig' -x CVS grub2-submitted/kern/arm/RISC_OS/startup.S

I found some documentation for the RISC OS API online:
http://www.drobe.co.uk/show_manual.php?manual=/sh-cgi
Most of what GRUB uses is under "OS".

Problem 1: In the function test_header, the array buf is accessed via pointers
to grub_uint32_t and grub_uint16_t without ensuring correct alignment of the
pointers. This does not work on ARM. Fixed by:

First, unlike other ARM assemblers I've seen, GNU AS does not align sections
to a 4 byte boundary by default. IMHO it should.

Your kernel will have to switch to 64 bit mode itself, if using GRUB Legacy.
