I am not really willing to try that out at this time, because I am afraid
of losing the data on my production system when installing grub2 as
Bootloader in the MBR of my harddrive (currently, I am using Grub Legacy).

But I do not believe that the solution for bug #567728 also would solve my
problem, because update-grub created a boot entry for Windows 7 without
error message and Windows 7 started to load, but it did not load
completely.
