bug#7162: 23.1; clicking in menu bar blank area hangs emacs interface

When I click in the menu bar area to the right of "Help" (where there is no menu), Emacs 23 on my ubuntu 10.04 box "hangs" - not really hangs, but it stops responding to keypresses and the cursor in the active buffer is no longer blinking.
I can restore normal functioning by clicking on a menu (in the menu bar) and then dismissing the menu. So again, it's not that the process hangs, but why does a mouse click lock up the rest of the interface so that only opening a menu clears it?
Correct behavior would be to ignore mouse clicks in the menu bar area that don't open a menu.
(Clicking in the title bar is OK.)
