Bug#613245: grub-pc: g2hdr.bin and g2ldr.mbr moved and/or removed; breaks build-rdeps assumptions.

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.99~rc1-2
Severity: important

Hi, 

it seems that since some versions, grub-pc has stopped to ship the g2hdr.bin
and g2ldr.mbr files (which were in /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/).

Problem is that I am using them to build a minimal grub that gets bundled in
win32-loader: 

…
core.img:
        grub-mkimage --output=$@ --prefix=/win32-loader --format=i386-pc
$(GRUB_MODULES)

g2ldr: /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/g2hdr.bin core.img
        cat $^ > $@

g2ldr.mbr: /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/g2ldr.mbr
        cp $^ $@
…

Where did those file go, by what have they been replaced ?

Thanks in advance for enlightenment, cheers, 

OdyX
