Geoff,

Thanks for reporting this.

Devuan uses Debian's grub2 packages without recompilation so this should be
reported to Debian's BTS. A quick look shows a similar bug reported yesterday
against Debian unstable[1]. However, it may be worth adding to that report the
fact that stable security updates is also affected. Would you do that?

Thanks

Mark
