Kernel Installation Bug

I just wanted to point out a little bug I've run into recently when
installing kernels.
Each time a new kernel is installed, it replaces /boot/grub/menu.lst.
The bug is that it keeps changing the "root (hd1,0)" line into "root
(hd0,0)".
The problem here is that I have my Ubuntu installation on hd1, and it
gives me an error and won't boot when this is changed.
The solution is to either boot off the liveCD or to manually type in
boot parameters using grub's command line and then edit the menu.lst
file.
But this bug should not exist, if I am correct. Am I doing something
wrong, or have I just uncovered a bug? And if so, should I file with
bugzilla?
