If I kill current emacs and start it freshly the menu starts working correctly. It continue to work correctly but eventually stops (entering the point into a table cell doesn't bring the table menu item anymore). I don't exactly know what "eventually" means technically at this moment. If you use GDB to investigate what happens in updating the menu when it is failing, and simultaneously investigate another new Emacs process in which this is still working correctly, you can compare them and see where and why they start to diverge. I think we should not delay the release to fix this.
