Since it's always modifying '. ${libdir}/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib',
perhaps you can replace it with another SUBST_SED instead?

Another issue: when the freetype option is turned on, options.mk
manually downloads a file. Please don't do that. Instead, add
DISTFILES=${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX} to the first block in the main
Makefile, and do "DISTFILES+=unifont-5.1.20080820.pcf.gz" in
options.mk; additionally
SITES.unifont-5.1.20080820.pcf.gz=http://unifoundry.com/
will let pkgsrc know from where to fetch it.
I haven't tried but guess that the file will automatically be unpacked
into WRKDIR, so you might need a post-extract target renaming it (or
unpacking and renaming it, if I'm wrong).

Hope this helps,
 Thomas
