Meanwhile, I managed to compile "grub-mount" from the source repository
of grub (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/) with the lastest known
version (bzr branch http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/trunk/grub). I
replaced the buggy ubuntu binary with the one I just compiled...and it
works !

You can just download this executable and copy it in /usr/bin to fix
this issue on this webpage :

After refit I have now the standard grub boot menu allowing me to select
various boot option (Linux, memtest, Mac OSX, ...)

Title:
  grub-mount hangs when update-grub is ran

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Whenever my system tries to build the grub.cfg, the grub-mount hangs and I have to kill it 3 times before the command completes.
  I had a look on the internet and I got this links which is related :

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2012-02/msg00206.html

  To sum up, I have a 3 fs on my disks which are hfs+ and grub-mount
  hangs each time it tries to process them.

  Problem seems to have been fixed upstream.
