I agree with Hollis. It should be automatic. What is wrong with setting $? to 
grub_errno? Isn't it enough to see if it is GRUB_ERR_NONE or not?

BTW, you added lsb.c, but I don't like this very much. On Unix, the testing 
command is "test", and "[" is just an aliases, isn't it? I prefer to use 
commands/test.c, and register "[" as another name of test.
