Okay, I just installed the version from lucid-proposed:

torsten@sharokan:~$ dpkg -l|grep grub
ii  grub-common                                     1.98-1ubuntu13              
                    GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (common files)
ii  grub-pc                                         1.98-1ubuntu13              
                    GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS version)

I had to run

# grub-install /dev/sda

to actually update the grub installation (it would be nice if installing
the new package would do that automatically, but this is of course a
risk wrt. possible regressions).

I created a snapshot again and low and behold: I can boot just fine even with 
existing LVM snapshots.
Thanks! I am all for moving this to lucid-updates.
