Maybe you'll have more luck with grub2 instead of legacy grub?

I've compiled the bzr version of grub2 on amd64: all I had to do was
to add -L /usr/lib32 at the end stage of linking.

However, there's currently a bug in grub2 which prevents it from
interpreting and recognizing BSD partitions correctly. It's currently
being worked on.
