The bug is not in manual. Link is generated by texinfo when converting
grub.texi to HTML. It just need to be regenerated with correct texinfo
version that knows how to translate multiboot link. See message below:

Assuming current web layout, it would be this patch below and grub
manual must be regenerated by texinfo 5.x that includes this patch. I'm
not really feel to be competent enough to submit this patch myself - I
simply do not know how web location is decided.
