So from David's diff, it appears the grub in lucid did not support $var
syntax consistently, it requires us to use ${var}. I'm not sure what
the rules are for when $var is supported and when it isn't. Perhaps
it's only when quoting the variable that we have to use the latter
syntax?
Since we know we aren't going to upgrade the MBR when upgrading from
10.04 to 12.04, we should make sure our grub.cfg remains compatible with
older grub2.
