It looks like it's no longer a problem in grub2.

Sorry but we don't accept anymore bug reports for grub-legacy. They won't be fixed anyway.
So could you please check if that's still a problem for grub2, though I doubt this?

If the user or group building the software has spaces in the name (which is common with Winbind setups that use Windows' "domain users" as the group name), then the build fails, because it tries to grab the sixth word out of ls -l's output to compute stage2's size.
