sorrily, I can't help, but I can confirm the problems.
savedefault does not work for me either. 
My grub is 0.5.97 checked out from the cvs tree on
22nd of Jan, 20001. I installed it with grub-install on 
/dev/hda4 on a Caldera eDesktop 2.4

My menu.lst is included below.

Grub starts up everytime with the first menu entry 
highlighted and never remembers any previous 
selection.
