Or maybe not.  I did what I thought was needed (see bzr r116153), but
there's still a problem with restoring the original value of
overriding-terminal-local-map after popping down the menu.  E.g., in
this scenario:

  emacs -Q -nw
  M-x server-start
  F10

then in another terminal:

  emacsclient -t

This pops down the menu, but the value of
overriding-terminal-local-map in the original frame is not restored,
so, for example, any cursor motion command signals an error because it
tries to invoke tty-menu commands.

What am I not doing correctly here?  TIA.
