Only thing I can think of now are things that I don't know about the
update process's sensitivity. Order of occurrences, inter-line
whitespace, etc. Here's my 5.0 menu.list. *BUT*, I recently modified it
to move my LFS entry to the bottom so it is no longer the default entry.
I won't know if it's still working until another update.

URL below is to my 5.x (modified by me) and my 4.x (box stock with
normal updates). Maybe something visual will spark a clue? It often does
for me.

GOTCHAS: *leading whitespace are TABS! This bites me a lot of times.
