I think it is enough to create the binary images for GNU/Linux and
GNU/Hurd, even if GRUB depends on beta releases. However, *BSD require
that a package should be created from a port in the standard
environments.

Yes, but they are not required unless you develop GRUB. So I don't
think the requirements are bad.
