Summary:                    grub and syslinux are not properly integrated into
build process
Description: 
It is possible to select grub and syslinux during "make menuconfig", but
both packages are not compiled, because the line

  include */*/*.mk

is missing inside the main Makefile (grub.mk resides in target/x86/grub
which is nested one level too deep for the default configuration).

Besides, grub is cross-compiled, but the binaries are not copied into the
target filesystem (at least grub, stage1, stage2 are needed) . I am not
sure if it is better to do this or to compile grub for the host system
instead.
