bug#15001: 24.3.50; Help menubar with mouse left-click on Snow Leopard --with-ns.

[Keith David Bershatsky]

Step 1:  Build an EmacsTrunk --with-ns on OSX 10.6.8 and use it with OSX 10.6.8:

     The application I am presently using was built from scratch yesterday 
morning -- i.e., all prior versions were deleted from my system, and then I 
downloaded a fresh emacs-trunk using the following command line:

     /macports/bin/bzr branch --stacked bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/trunk 
emacs-trunk

     Then, just in case there were any revisions, I did a pull:   
(/macports/bin/bzr pull).  I received a message telling me there were no 
revisions.

     ./autogen.sh

     ./configure --with-ns

     make bootstrap

     make && make install

     In GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0, NS apple-appkit-1038.36)
     of 2013-08-11 on MP.local
     Bzr revision: 113798 jan.h.d@swipnet.se-20130811153426-2xb8aen4h3q3fd7h
     Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.1038
     Configured using:
     `configure --with-ns'

Step 2:  With no .emacs file in my home directory, and with an empty .emacs.d 
directory, open the graphical user interface version of Emacs Trunk revision 
113798.

Step 3:  Move the mouse over to the word Help on the Emacs menu-bar and press 
the left-click one time and release -- this activates (mouse-drag-region 
START-EVENT).  The mose-drag-region is system wide and any window the mouse 
comes in contact with will be dragged.  The Help menu does not appear with only 
one left click.  In order to get the Help menu to appear, it is necessary to 
press and release the mouse left click a total of two times.
