Even better would be if upstream could add it into the cmake
configuration. E.g (untested):

find_file(
GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE
NAMES grub2.cfg burg.cfg grub.cfg
PATHS "/boot/grub2" "/boot/burg" "/boot/grub" "/etc"
DOC "Path to grub2 or burg configuration file"
NO_DEFAULT_PATH
)

set_property(
SOURCE ${grub_relatedsources}
APPEND
PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
"GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE=${GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE}"
)

I don't know why this kind of thing isn't done more often. Short,
simple, easy to set from the command line if needed.

If this looks vaguely sane/wanted i can file a bug upstream suggesting this.
