bug#4930: 23.1.50; C-mouse-1 undefined?

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

I don't have a real mouse, only a trackpad. In GNU Emacs 22.3 C- 
mouse-1 lets pop up the Buffer Menu, GNU Emacs 23.1.50 with NS from  
middle of October or today shows the same behaviour. X11 client from  
2009-11-08 and from 2009-11-15 show both a faulty behaviour... (since  
last weekend, previously, i.e., in October, they were working,  
popping up the menu)

C-h k C-trackpad tells me:

	<C-down-mouse-1> at that spot runs the command mouse-buffer-menu,
	which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `mouse.el'.
	
	It is bound to <C-down-mouse-1>.
	
	(mouse-buffer-menu EVENT)
	
	Pop up a menu of buffers for selection with the mouse.
	This switches buffers in the window that you clicked on,
	and selects that window.

but when I actually control-click the trackpad I receive in echo area:

	"<C-mouse-1> is undefined"

Hello!

<S-mouse-1> is also undefined...

If you don't find it in the index, look very carefully through the

bug#4930: 23.1.50; C-mouse-1 undefined?

[Clathrate Boink]

With further investigation I think I may have found the problem.
Emacs lisp ints are only 30 bits wide.  Timestamps come in from
XButtonEvent and make_lispy_event calls make_lispy_position, which
uses make_number to stash away the event timestamp.  Unfortunately
this will truncate the top two bits of the timestamp.  This is
subsequently passed to gtk_menu_popup via
xmenu_show/create_and_show_popup_menu.  It ends up going to XGrab<xxx>
which appears to be failing when given such a truncated timestamp.

As for what to do about it, I'm a bit stuck...

Since some days/maybe a week I have C-mouse-1 and S-mouse-1 reliably  
working...

bug#4930: Fix for timestamp related popup-menu problem with some X servers

Thanks.  I've checked your patch into the emacs-23 branch.
