Samuel,

You're right, those comments snuck in from another project.  An  
interest of our team is domain decomposition.  Members of the team  
created a domain builder separate from dom0 (conceptually similar to  
Derek Murray's recent project based on Rolf Neugebauer's "initial  
domains" patch) that accepts grub modules as input.  So, your  
suspicion is correct that the comments don't belong in this patch and  
are related to modifications used to accommodate several modules and  
command line arguments.
Thanks for catching my mistake.  I also welcome such an attentive  
critique of the proposed grouping functionality.  :)
Cheers,
Chris
