Right, that is as I expected.

The two major changes since 20.2 in this area have been that easymenu.el
(the real one, not the clone of an old version in VM) is now dumped with
XEmacs.  The second change is that lisp interaction mode was modified to
make its menus with easymenu instead of consing them up by hand.  Part 
of this change was to put the menu on the menubar, just like all other 
easymenu creations.

O.K.  One possibility might be to see how far you get replacing
vm-easymenu.el with something that `fset's the vm- symbols to their
real easymenu counterparts.  Except for some stuff I don't understand
tweaking menu keymaps (an FSFism not currently supported by XEmacs,
right?) it looks like it could be replaced by the standard easy menu.

Another possibility is to see where VM-mail-mode is inheriting its
menubar from.  There might be a logic error there.
