This is almost always caused by adding items to the menu after the control
is created, and not setting the max of the control to the number of items in
the menu (or greater). If that's not it, then the other thing to look for is
a CarbonEvent handler (usually on the window or application) that's
returning noErr for events it doesn't handle.
