Still true, in the latest Windows build:
In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2011-07-11 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.5) --no-opt --cflags
-Ic:/build/include'
Likewise, this is still true:

It does not tell you "how to put the mouse-3 menu on mouse-3 instead of on
C-mouse-3". It is not specific wrt doing what that now-obsolete variable did.
Likewise, wrt doing what the other mouse-3 menu functions (also made obsolete)
did.
Several things have been declared obsolete, and there is not even a comment in
the code indicating what to do in their stead. And nothing in NEWS. And the
doc still refers to what is obsolete - "since 23.1", as you point out.
