Actually this is somewhat of a downgrade, because for sid we upload
upstreams' trunk branch whereas we upload the experimental branch to
experimental.
So some things aren't included there.
Except though you still have the version installed which I wrongfully
uploaded to unstable instead of experimental.

Anyway, in line 40 of /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober change `function
osx_entry {' to `osx_entry() {'
then try `dpkg --configure -a' or apt/aptitude again.

I already uploaded a fixed version, should be avaible soon on the
mirrors.
