   Can someone please debug this?

       1. Define these:

       (defun foo () (y-or-n-p "foo? "))
       (defun bar () (y-or-n-p "bar? "))
       (setq kill-emacs-query-functions '(foo bar))

       2. Use the menu-bar File > Exit Emacs. 

       The question "foo? " correctly appears in a popup menu y/n.

       3. Respond `n'  to "foo? ".

       4. The question "bar? " should be asked via a popup menu also, but it
          appears instead in the minibuffer.

No, the question bar should not be asked at all if you answere `n' to
foo, and in today's CVS it is not asked, at least not on GNU/Linux.

If you answer `y' to foo, then bar should be asked via a popup menu,
and it is, in today's CVS, at least on GNU/Linux.

There is no bug.

>From the kill-emacs-query-functions docstring:

  Functions to call with no arguments to query about killing Emacs.
  If any of these functions returns nil, killing Emacs is cancelled. 

In other words, once you answer `n' to any question, the other
questions are not asked.  The fact that bar was asked for Drew could
have been a temporary bug In CVS which would appear to be fixed now.
Unless it is operating system specific, or a local problem with Drew's
setup.
