Bug#489440: grub-mkrescue page bad NAME

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080626-1
Severity: normal

If I type "man grub-install", I get the grub-mkrescue man page.
Apparently this is because it has a NAME section that claims it's the
grub-install man page. The actual grub-install man page is only
available via "man 8 grub-install". Very confusing.
