As far as I'm aware GNUstep is able to display the bindings correctly
no matter how many characters they have, so we don't need the
work-around. And I'm hoping that we'll be able to get GNUstep menus
working again in the future.

I think the problem is something to do with drawing the frame rather
than a problem with building the menus. But I could be wrong.

Yes, I think so.
