Follow-up Comment #1, bug #42954 (project grub):

Explicitly setting root appears to be necessary. This works:

set root=(hd1,gpt3)
chainloader (hd1,gpt3)/System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi
boot

It's necessary to do an ls first in order to determine the actual hdX
designation, which on two systems flips non-deterministically between boots
between hd0 and hd1, sometimes hd3 if another device is attached, such as a
USB stick.

Tested on master branch, Fedora 20 and Fedora 21 GRUB; two different vintage
MacbookPros (8,2 and 9,2); and OS X 10.8.5 with an encrypted CoreStorage
volume, and OS X 10.10 unencrypted CoreStorage volume.

This bug is therefore probably not a bug!
