Another observation: this genkernel is looking for /boot/grub/grub.conf while AFAIK grub2 is using /boot/grub/grub.cfg (grub.cfg is existing on the /boot/grub directory, /boot/grub/grub.conf is not). I have another system that might work by accident... /dev/sda1 & /dev/sdb1 are a mirrored pair of disk named /dev/md1.... in this case the numbering fits., when booted from CD these volumes mostly are called something else (/dev/md254 or something near that..) that obviously won't match the logic for partition finding while the arithmatic expression would succeed.
further reading of the code revealed a grub.map is used, where the file is called device.map in the existing /boot/grub directory. I have a feeling of fundamental things radically changed without a lot of noise about the changes. This might break more installations.

You need to set BOOTLOADER="grub2" for grub2, BOOTLOADER="grub" is for grub legacy (0.97)
The line in genkernel.conf was #BOOTLOADER="grub" ie. it was unconfigured.
Can you share your complete genkernel.log and genkernel.conf?
After adding BOOT_LOADER=grub2 the genkernel does work with out errors except it doesn't update the grub.cfg I will create upload the logs...

Created attachment 536882 [details] genkernel.conf In this version the bootloader is set to grub2...
Created attachment 536884 [details] genkernel.log Build with BOOT_LOADER=grub2 gziped (file was 20K too large).
So, that's a log from a successful build, isn't it?
yes. Except that kernel version ...49 is NOT in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
I cannot reproduce this any more. The problems might have occurred before any successfull run of genkernel. I will close the issue
