Bug#486180: grub2: Variable parsing adds spaces

[Josh Triplett]

Package: grub2
Severity: normal

A command that includes a variable ends up splitting the arguments at
that point, regardless of spaces or quoting on the command line.  For
example, this:

set foo=1
echo x${foo}y

prints "x 1 y".

This bug makes it difficult to use variables for any non-trivial
purpose.
