Here Is Fermentis' Tips and Tricks for Craftbrewers . . . Most of it is correct, but some of it is dubious at our volumes . . . I'll leave you to work out what 
From the Fermentis PDF :-
Warning: sometimes it may be necessary
to sparge one more time, to obtain the
final volume of wort: 1 Kg (1lb)
of spent grains retains
0.90L (0.108 gal) of wort.
Tut tut, since when did 1Kg = 1Lb? I'm pretty sure that my 1Kg bag of sugar = 2.2Lbs!
Interesting read though.

No, you're misreading it (admittedly it is not clear)...
What they are trying to say is:
1 kg of spent grains retains 0.90L of wort
which is the same as saying:
1 lb of spent grains retains 0.108 gal of wort
where they are using 3.79 litres per gallon (i.e. not imperial gallon). :thumb:

In practice, one loses more like 0.125 US gallons (1 US pint) of wort per pound of grain.
