I tried this, and I think it's not the menu that is causing the

an item on the tool-bar.
Thank you for pointing us in the right direction. It is actually a
problem with font backends on Windows. As CVS is down, I can't check in
the immediate workaround - which is to add the uniscribe backend to
x_create_tip_frame in w32fns.c so:
register_font_driver (&w32font_driver, f);
becomes:
if (uniscribe_available)
register_font_driver (&uniscribe_font_driver, f);
register_font_driver (&w32font_driver, f);
The bug still triggers with the same recipe if you do the following:
(add-to-list 'tooltip-frame-parameters '(font-backend . "gdi"))
but I can't reproduce the bug on GNU/Linux doing something similar
(substituting "x" for "gdi"), so it still seems to be a Windows specific
bug.
