  	GRUB shell lexer and parser improvements.

1.98 was released on 2010-03-06.

Upgrades from Lucid -> Precise are affected.
Quantal is not affected, per se. Unless the user does not update grub after upgrading.
Debian squeeze and up are not affected (it has newer snapshot 1.98+20100804-14+squeeze1)

I would only do Precise SRU. But we could add the fix into quantal as
well.

Bug description:
  I upgraded a 10.04 to 12.04 Beta 2.

  After the compulsory reboot, I ended up stuck on a GRUB shell.

  GRUB didn't get properly updated

  Screen shot is attached.

  I know how to pass that problem manually by upgrading grub
  configuration by hand using a LiveCD.. But obviously, for your lambda
  users it's going to be a massive blocker.
