no, it does not. it never did. the testing scenarios have always been insufficient.
I needed to add an entry to menu.lst to chain to a different menu.lst from another partition (this GRUB dual-boots Mageia Cauldron 32-bit with Windows XP, and the chained GRUB boots Mageia Cauldron 64-bit).
Once you manually touch menu.lst, it's never going to be properly updated afterwards.
such is life, I suppose -- buggy.
