I'm not sure in menu_finalize() you can properly/easily deal with
multiple prompts associated with the same symbol under different
menus.

Anyway, the patch I proposed works (for me), and I'm hoping
to get it in unless someone (you?) comes up with a better one.
Not fixing the (presumably unintended) side effect of your
earlier patch seems undesirable to me.
