Elsewhere in the manual, "fake function key" refers
to the symbol itself - e.g., in node `Menu Bar':
"the fake function key 'menu-bar'"
Not `<menu-bar>'. And not `<MENU-BAR>'.
"To add an item to the menu bar, invent a fake function key of your
own (let's call it KEY), and make a binding for the key sequence
'[menu-bar KEY]'."
Not `<KEY>'. (And KEY is a placeholder here.)
"Here, 'edit' is the fake function key"
"a list of fake function keys.... The default value
is '(help-menu)'"
Not `(<help-menu>)'. And not `<HELP-MENU>'.
And in node `Tool Bar':
"fake function key called 'tool-bar'"
Not `(<tool-bar>)'. And not `<TOOL-BAR>'.
The bug I cited is the only place where the treatment
is different, whether or not you argue that `<EAT>'
there is a key label.
