LEAP 15.2 GRUB2 unable to boot (old) systems on EXT3?

I upgraded an old box from Leap 15.0 to 15.2 Beta (Build 617.1, legacy MBR booting). Everything looked OK until...
I tried to boot an old Ubuntu in an EXT3 partition on the same disk: instead of booting the desired 2.6.32 kernel, a reboot occurs.
The old system is sound, SuperGRUB2 disk can boot it, even using the grub.cfg installed by the Leap 15.2 installer (that is, os_prober finds it and configures accordingly).

Is this a new intended behaviour, regression, bug or ? Anybody seeing something similar?
The situation described is admittedly a corner case and I'm not too worried since I have a workaround, but if anybody is interested I have a setup and willingness to contribute testing.
