Still true, in the latest Windows build: In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2011-07-11 on 3249CTO Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600 configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.5) --no-opt --cflags -Ic:/build/include' Likewise, this is still true: > And I find nothing in NEWS or NEWS.23 (or NEWS.22) about > "mouse-3" or "popup".

It does not tell you "how to put the mouse-3 menu on mouse-3 instead of on C-mouse-3". It is not specific wrt doing what that now-obsolete variable did. Likewise, wrt doing what the other mouse-3 menu functions (also made obsolete) did. Several things have been declared obsolete, and there is not even a comment in the code indicating what to do in their stead. And nothing in NEWS. And the doc still refers to what is obsolete - "since 23.1", as you point out.
