podebconf-display-po may be buggy here.  The template in question reads
as follows:

Template: grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst
Type: boolean
Default: true
#flag:translate!:6
_Description: Chainload from menu.lst?
 GRUB upgrade scripts have detected a GRUB Legacy setup in /boot/grub.
 .
 In order to replace the Legacy version of GRUB in your system, it is
 recommended that /boot/grub/menu.lst is adjusted to load a GRUB 2 boot
 image from your existing GRUB Legacy setup. This step can be automatically
 performed now.
 .
 It's recommended that you accept chainloading GRUB 2 from menu.lst, and
 verify that the new GRUB 2 setup works before it is written to the MBR
 (Master Boot Record).
 .
 Whatever your decision, you can replace the old MBR image with GRUB 2
 later by issuing the following command as root:
 .
 upgrade-from-grub-legacy

The #flag bit explicitly excludes "upgrade-from-grub-legacy" from
translation, because it should be the same when translated anyway.  Are
you sure that this isn't just podebconf-display-po getting it wrong?

Thanks,
