I believe this is now fixed, by commit
0a2a70539bdf42d59c9be5fcbc88a1c14743303a on core-updates.

The problem turned out to be that GRUB's build system couldn't find
'freetype', because 'pkg-config' was missing from the build environment.
This disabled font generation, as I discovered when I booted into a
core-updates system and found that GRUB was unable to find its font.

After I fixed that problem, I was pleased to find that the test suite
started succeeding again as well :)

I'm closing this bug now.
