Posting the above got me thinking. I have a 3 drive raided system, so I can 
boot from any of sda, sdb or sdc.

I ran a grub2-install on sdb and rebooted, stopping at bios to reboot from sdc 
and then sdb. Yup, each drive needed a new grub install or else it had that 
issue. So I am 99% sure that this is just a case of me not having updated my 
grub version on disk for so long.

Let this be a reminder to people upgrading over many version of Fedora. It does 
not hurt to update your grub boot sector every now and then. Maybe worth doing 
after each major Fedora version update.

P.S. Thanks to Tom for confirming that this is rare.
