In net/net.c there is a while (1) that only exits if there is a stop
condition and more then 10 packages or if there is no package received.
If GRUB is idle and enter in this loop, the only condition to leave is
if it doesn't have incoming packages. In a network with heavy traffic
this never happens.
Many tests fail when run as a non-root user on FreeBSD. The failures
all amount to an inability to open files using grub_util_fd_open,
because we cannot set the kern.geom.debugflags sysctl. This sysctl is
indeed important to allow us to do such things as installing GRUB to the
MBR, but if we need to do that and can't then we will get an error
later. Enforcing it here is unnecessary and prevents otherwise
perfectly reasonable operations.

list.h needs just ATTRIBUTE_ERROR from misc.h; split compiler features
into separate file grub/compiler.h and include it instead.
This allows providing separate LDFLAGS for build and host environments, which
are not necessary the same for cross-compile case. In particular, it allows
building host programs statically to not depend on presence of libraries at
run-time (e.g. MinGW DLLs on Windows) while continue to use default dynamic
linking at build time.
Also fix obsolete comments in confgure.ac - we do use different environment
for build and host now.
The length of the Device Path End entry in the grub_linux_boot()
function was incorrectly set to 0. This triggers an assert failure
in debug builds of Tianocore.
Set it to sizeof (grub_efi_device_path_t).
