Details:

Per bug 39721 (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?39721), the GRUB binaries
installed to bin and sbin work for any target platform.  However,
program-prefix defaults to the target platform, rather than an empty string. 
Since the binaries built for the host will work for any target platform, I'd
suggest changing the default program-prefix to the empty string.
