Well, the current grub2_1.96+20080429-1.diff.gz contains the following 
line in debian/grub-pc.postinst

	sed -i /etc/default/grub -e "s/^\(GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX\)=.*/\1=\"$RET\"/g"

which - I believe - will be fixed if single quotation marks were used

	sed -i /etc/default/grub -e 's/^\(GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX\)=.*/\1=\"$RET\"/g'

Cheers,
Fabian
