Round 2 (3?) in the arms race against the Debian Squeeze grub packages.

      * Improve syntax error messages to say what actually went wrong
        instead of giving an arbitrary and basically useless integer. 
      * Improve handling of quoted values used with the "set" command,
        previously only the default variable was special cased to handle
        quoting. 
      * Allow for extra options to the menuentry command, syntax now
        appears to be
                        menuentry "TITLE" --option1 --option2 {...}

Please include in 3.4 as well.
