I've installed keyboard grab.  I've used a C-variable x_menu_grab_keyboard
which one can set to zero to prevent the keyboard grab from the debugger.
I didn't get fancy with the install suggestion, after all, the grab only
causes problem if you suspend or stop Emacs while a menu is posted.  Surely
one can start Emacs from within the debugger in that case?
