This doesn't make sense to me. When `tooltip-show' calls `x-show-tip'
it does so with _params_ and not with `tooltip-frame-parameters'.
What's the reason to do the `copy-sequence' in the first place? Maybe
it's all about the 'left or 'top paramters.

At least, such a reset should occur at the time the variable is
customized and not when the tooltip is displayed.
BTW, a related issue: When I, for example, use the mouse for popping up
"Tools->Version Control->Show History"
from the menubar I get the tooltip
"List the change log of the current fileset in a window"
When I now move the mouse to the next menu entry
"Tools->Version Control->Update ChangeLog"
the old tooltip remains displayed. Do you see that? Is that a w32-only
problem?
