Oops, I missed that.  Added the "default #f" for the linux and initrd
fields, and this

@item @code{multiboot-kernel} (default: @code{#f})
The kernel to boot in Multiboot-mode (@pxref{multiboot,,, grub, GNU GRUB
manual}).  When this field is set, a Multiboot menu-entry is generated.
For example:

@lisp
(file-append mach "/boot/gnumach")
@end lisp

@item @code{multiboot-arguments} (default: @code{()})
The list of extra command-line arguments for the multiboot-kernel.

@item @code{multiboot-modules} (default: @code{()})
The list of commands for loading Multiboot modules.  For example:

@lisp
(list (list (file-append hurd "/hurd/ext2fs.static") "ext2fs"
             @dots{})
      (list (file-append libc "/lib/ld.so.1") "exec"
             @dots{}))
@end lisp

> Otherwise LGTM!

Thanks, Janneke
