wip/grub2 build failure

[Thomas Klausner <wiz%NetBSD.org@localhost>]

Hi!

grub2 doesn't build for me and in many bulk builds. Also, it's
outdated.

I took a look at updating it, see wip/grub2, but I can't get over one
build failure, and I don't understand it. Perhaps you can help?

The failure is:

1. why is the 'if test x0 = x1' line there twice?
   I turned off parallel make jobs (MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=no AND even setting MAKE_JOBS to 1)

2. as I read the if, it should run the strip command at the end of the
   line and end up with a kernel.img file. Why isn't it there? (It really
   isn't)

3. if I go to grub-core and do 'gmake kernel.img' I get one - this
   executes the same line as I see in the build log above.

Any insights welcome!
