Yeah, this is an unfortunate bug that we didn't catch until Snow Leopard.
Here's one way to work around it (there may be a better alternative that I'm not aware of). You can implement pathControl:willPopUpMenu: and keep a pointer to the menu it gives you. When the action is called, -[NSMenu highlightedItem] should give you the NSMenuItem that was selected. No need to modify the menu items' targets or actions.

Instead of doing this automatically and forcing developers to prevent or undo this behavior, NSPathControl instead expects you to set URL yourself in the action method if you want this behavior.
