Strange request anyway.

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/source/SRPMS/
grub2-1.98-0.3.20080827svn.fc10.src.rpm	30-Oct-2008 20:03 	971K	

No update. No test-update. In other words, this grub2 package is more than
a year old. To give it a try in Dec 2009 is very late. Fedora 10's boot
loader is GRUB 0.97, btw.

grub2 in bugzilla doesn't show much activity either:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&classification=Fedora&product=Fedora&component=grub2&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=MODIFIED&bug_status=ON_DEV&bug_status=ON_QA&bug_status=VERIFIED&bug_status=FAILS_QA&bug_status=RELEASE_PENDING&bug_status=POST&bug_status=CLOSED

Try to reproduce your problem with Fedora 11 or 12, then bugzilla it.
