** Description changed:

  On a new install of wily.  update-grub is improperly inserting a
  carriage return on the "linux" line of the grub.cfg menu items, between
  the two devices of a btrfs raid1 system (which for my system is in a
  luks container).  The menu entries all looks like this:
  
  menuentry 'Ubuntu' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-/dev/mapper/luks.root1_/dev/mapper/luks.root2' {
          recordfail
          load_video
          gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode
          insmod gzio
          if [ x$grub_platform = xxen ]; then insmod xzio; insmod lzopio; fi
          insmod part_msdos
          insmod btrfs
          set root='hd2,msdos1'
          if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
            search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd2,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd2,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci2,msdos1  fe74974e-3e23-43af-bfb1-7b520673c52b
          else
            search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root <UUID>
          fi
          linux   /@s3970boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-23-generic root=/dev/mapper/luks.root1
  /dev/mapper/luks.root2 ro rootflags=subvol=@  quiet splash $vt_handoff
          initrd  /@s3970boot/initrd.img-4.2.0-23-generic
  }
  
  
  Removing that <cr> makes everything boot fine.
