Well, first of all, I'm using update-grub nowadays -- so I don't
personally care any more... To be honest, I didn't even remember filing
this issue back then :-)

Fundamentally, memtest behaves largely like a kernel image for most
intents and purposes -- so using options from /etc/kernel-img.conf would
make sense in principle... However, the options in question for
disabling update-grub etc. seem to have been dropped altogether: which I
guess is the source of the confusion here -- best I can tell, this bug
is simply obsolete at this point...
