Marking as Won't Fix.
I don't especially want to change this since there could be users who
would want to dual-boot freebsd or something else. As Colin pointed out,
these files are small enough to be irrelevant when having to make
feature vs. size decisions.

Title:
64 bit Ubuntu CD images contains unneeded grub2 modules (eg. bsd.mod
or xnu.mod) in /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/
Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Status in Baltix GNU/Linux:
Confirmed
Bug description:
amd64 bit Ubuntu CD images are bigger than i386 and often doesn't fit
into CD (because 64 bit images have additionally GRUB EFI boot
loader). This problem can be solved by removing unneeded GRUB2 modules
from CD:
Please remove unneeded grub2 modules in /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/ folder,
like bsd.mod or xnu.mod (and several other, it seems, but I'm not GRUB
guru) from 64 bit Ubuntu CD images.
