My experience with dual-booting grub(version 0.97) says that you don't
have to worry about this. About the only thing I have to worry about
is when the secondary OS makes changes to what it needs to boot(i.e.
new kernel version). Then I have to manually merge the changes from
grub.cnf back into the grub.conf.
