I've read through the code very carefully, but at the moment I can't see
why this would be happening.  There are some changes I could make that
would probably make it go away, but I'd like to understand the problem
before randomly prodding at possible solutions.

Could somebody affected by this bug please do the following:

  * Edit /etc/grub.d/10_linux (as root) and put 'set -x' (without the quotes) 
on the second line, that is on the line immediately after '#! /bin/sh -e'.
  * Run 'sudo update-grub >update-grub.out 2>&1' (without the quotes; make sure 
you type this exactly).
  * Assuming that you hit the same problem, this should run indefinitely.  Give 
it (say) a minute to make sure that it has definitely entered the infinite loop 
we're seeing here, and then press Control+c.
  * Attach the file update-grub.out to this bug.
  * Undo the change you made to /etc/grub.d/10_linux in the first step.

Thanks in advance!
