I noticed that this is entered automatically (despite the bug) during
the install if you add another OS during the grub configuration and
point it at the NTFS partition.

That is close to what I expected to happen, twice, one for each NTFS
partition (I think both boot).
I don't recall every having to do anything special before, and I;m not
going to reinstall on that box just to find out, and it's the only
64-bit CPU I have.
fwiw I don't think your code is precisely right: some years ago, some
stirrer on one of the RHL 7.x lists muttered that adding an entry
"windows" might be a breach of trademark, and how do we know it's
windows and not something else, maybe DOS, maybe OS/2 (NTFS and HPFS use
the same partition type; really it means "installable filesystem").
The result, after some discussion, was a change to call it "other" or
some such.
