This seems to be a problem with Win32's x-popup-menu.  The following Lisp 
demonstrates the bug.

(let* ((position t)
      (contents '("q1" ("yes" . 1) ("no" . 2)))
      (menu (cons (car contents) (cons contents nil))))
 (setq q1 (x-popup-menu position menu))
 (setq q2 (x-popup-menu position menu))
 (format "q1=%s, q2=%s" q1 q2))

You should see two consecutive yes/no popups, followed by the display of your 
choices.

On Windows, you see only the first popup and corresponding answer.  The second 
call to x-popup-menu returns nil.

I suspect that 'menu_free_timer' and 'current_popup_menu' are to blame.
