That is, I get continuous beeping and Emacs consumes the CPU, but I
don't see menu redisplay.  And in fact, I can stop the beeping and CPU
consumption by clicking on clicking the SGML menu and toggling tag
visibility.  Clicking on the HTML menu stops the beeping but it
resumes when the menu is closed.  Clicking on the other menues does
not seem to stop the beeping.  I'm not sure these observations are
reliably reproducible.
