You need to use -- to make arguments starting with minus sign not to be treated as options.  Below example will work:

menuentry -- "--=bug" { insmod ext2 }

if you use a menuentry starting with minus sign , this entry is not display at boot :

exemple of menu entry :

menuentry "---bug" {
insmod ext2
}
