No.  The problem disappears "earlier".

The problem disappears when I increase the size of the Emacs window from
22/21.0 (`window-height'/`window-screen-lines') to 24/23.0 which is,
however, not sufficient to cover the entire File menu - the menu item
"New Frame on Display" initially overlays the mode line in that case.
