Hi Felix,

please build the package with `DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip,noopt,debug dpkg-buildpackage',
to get a debug build. Don't add something like `-j2' or it doestn't work.
And then run grub-probe inside gdb, then you can get a backtrace.
If you need help with this I'm on Freenode in #grub with nick fezie.
