Indeed, looking at the lucid source, I see that the post_install() calls
the execscripts before the --only-chroot checks, whereas
hypervisor.py:install_os(), which installs the bootloader, gets called
after.

I assume it's there for a reason so don't want to blindly move it.
Would like guidance from Soren:  was the intent of execscripts to be
called after full os install, or after initial chroot build?  Should a
new --os-execripts or somesuch option be added to allow scripts to be
called after full OS install?

As a workaround you should be able to have the early execscript create
an /etc/default/grub, though I'm not sure whether dpkg would then
require interaction to ask whether to use your existing
/etc/default/grub.
