([16777315] . " (H-c)") in a menu-item

[David Reitter]

Since the list server is down this weekend, I'm sending this to you 
FYI. The effect is very robust and very annoying, because after 
changing some menu items, stuff in the Edit menu doesn't work any more 
and gives me an error (wrong argument commandp).

I've been poking around trying to trace this bug for hours, but no luck 
so far.

I'm trying hard to put together an Aquamacs release that works on Tiger 
quickly.

This is a little strange.

(assq 'copy (lookup-key global-map [menu-bar edit]))
--> (copy "Copy" "Copy text in region to the clipboard" ([16777315] . " 
 (H-c)") . clipboard-kill-ring-save)

What does this 16777315 do there? Is it supposed to be there??

Interestingly, it doesn't happen consistently. This is what it usually 
looks like:

(copy "Copy" "Copy text in region to the clipboard" . 
clipboard-kill-ring-save)

Now, at some point during my startup phase (many customizations), the 
menu item changes to the 'strange' entry. It is not easy to analyze 
when that change occurs. If I delete this and that in my init file, the 
bug just occurs at a later point. Either way, the keymap ends up being 
corrupted (or "augmented). The final result, however, very regular.

One suspect is define-key, such as in

(setq apple-char (string (decode-char 'ucs #X2318)))
; redefine New
(define-key menu-bar-file-menu [new-file]
  '(menu-item (format  "New                            %sN"  
apple-char)  new-frame-with-new-scratch
              :enable (not (window-minibuffer-p
                            (frame-selected-window menu-updating-frame)))
              :help "Read or create a file and edit it"))

(which works on OS X)

Is this a bug?
If not, is 16777315 a code for a keyboard shortcut or something?

I get this with a recent (but patched) build on OS X 10.3.9

Any help appreciated!!!
