The maths menu is actually useful with any toolkit, since it provides
the Unicode character names as well as the characters themselves, and
you can always use the TMM interface to see them.  (It's an annoyance
that the special characters can display as junk, but it;s not fatal.)
I don't see a problem providing such things when it's not essential to
have all the text rendered.

I don't understand why it's still there, since I doubt current Emacs
runs on anything without at least X11R4 (which even SunOS 4.1.4 has).
I did work on eliminating it with the X10 configuration when getting
rid of cpp for building makefiles.
