Variable "chosen" not being set to the last entry booted

I was using grub2-1.97~beta4 and had a grub.cfg file which contains

menuentry "              Windows " {
    saved_entry=${chosen}
    save_env saved_entry
    set root=NvDisk1
    chainloader +1
}

After upgrading to grub2-1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3 and that stanza no longer works correctly.  "saved_entry" is being saved as an empty string and not the Windows entry selected.  I can confirm that save_env is indeed working because when I replace  "saved_entry=${chosen}" with " saved_entry=1", the entry number 1 is indeed the one to be booted on the next reboot and it is also the one written in the environment file.

Can anyone confirm any problems in this area?
