Confirmed on MacBook5,1.
Made a FAT32 partition using the BootCamp Assistant, when the "Insert Windows 
CD and click Button" message appeared, I clicked "Cancel." Then I installed 
Intrepid Ibex, shrinking the BootCamp partition, adding another FAT32 partition 
for data exchange, and adding the ext3 root partition and swap partition.

I didn't install rEFIt before installing Ubuntu, and I accidentally installed 
GRUB to the MBR (default installation). This way I ended up with no bootable 
system at all. I could start into Ubuntu by inserting the CD and hitting the 
"Start from first hard disk" option, but there was no way to get into OS X 
(tried different possibilities with the OS X installation disc).
Solution for me was to download the rEFIt ISO image in Ubuntu, and burning it 
to a CD. Then I was able to resync my partition tables and boot into any OS.
