If more than one emacs frame is open in X11 under OS X (version 10.5),
then (current-buffer) seems to return the most recently created
visible buffer, not the one that currently has X focus, which is what
the user expects.  This causes the menu-bar hooks to be unable to
recalculate menu names based on which buffer is current.

I never noticed this problem in emacs 21, so I conjecture that
current-buffer worked correctly before version 22, but that's merely a
conjecture.
