Looks like it's a BIOS glitch, not a bug in GRUB.

Although Windows XP is no longer on this netbook - it only runs Lubuntu
now :) - after you had booted up Windows XP and booted up Ubuntu or
vice-versa, after the extra reboot which would happen, the BIOS summery
screen would say something like "Update Success", if you removed the
Samsung logo from the BIOS boot screen.

It seems to be a buggy BIOS rather than GRUB.  I did update the BIOS
(which could only be done within Windows XP) and no further updates to
the BIOS have been released since then.

Apologies.

  GRUB boatloader on Samsung NB30 netbook causes reboot

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi.  I'm dual booting Windows XP and Ubuntu Netbook Edition.  I power
  on the netbook and when I boot up either Windows XP or Ubuntu Netbook
  Edition, it reboots straight away, but always manages to boot up
  either operating system second time round.  This problem sometimes
  happens when I reboot from one operating system to boot up the other.
