[Bug 425650] Re: Karmic: Re-generation of grub.cfg takes long time.

Sorry, I think this patch is incorrect as it stands.  The point of using
grub-probe is to ensure that GRUB will be able to read it at boot time.
'test -r' would not achieve this - it would only check for file
permissions, which are irrelevant here (we've already done 'test -e').

grub-probe should not take a long time, and if it is doing so then
*that* is what should be fixed.  That particular call is not in an inner
loop or anything - indeed I think it's only called once per update-grub
run, and there's no intrinsic reason it should be a bottleneck.
