I confirm that Dominique's patch helps with a minor modification. The original patch creates paths that start like "//vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64". That is not compatible with Xenserver PVGRUB. I attach a corrected patch. That creates paths like "/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64". I also confirm, that with this patch applied, update-menu-lst generates correct paths when /boot is on the root partition (eg. not-separated).
