So, sorry about this, and the wait in fixing. The particular reason for
taking out the old binding was that the argument signature is incorrect
for scheme, because the gpointer argument would never be used.

But as many people have noted the lack of this function, I went ahead
and did a more-or-less proper wrapper. The function argument can be #f,
or a function that takes a menu and returns a list of x, y, push_in, as
per the gtk_menu_popup docs. Would be nice to doc this inside
guile-gnome itself.

Anyway, I just pushed that, and should get a release out tomorrow if
everything goes well.

Cheers,

Andy
