I would not suggest changing `x-popup-menu'. My suggestion was to have
`message-box' call `x-popup-menu' (or other code to create the menu) passing
multiple menu lines, all of which, except the last one ("OK"), are
non-selectable.
The multiple lines come from splitting, at each \n, the result of applying
FORMAT-STRING to ARGS.
(BTW, I do not have the Emacs 24 C code, but in Emacs 23.3 it looks like
`message-box' calls `x-popup-dialog', not `x-popup-menu'. Same idea, anyway.)
