I would like to push this patch that has emacs-rebuilt menus.
They actually typeset a bit worse than the hand-written ones
(see e.g. the last hunk) but I think that doing something
automatically is better than doing it manually, and if there
is pain involved then we should consider trying to shorten the
names of the nodes in question.  (If we do, we need to remember
to add entries to html_node/.symlinks in the web cvs, so the old
URLs remain valid.)

Opinions?

Automatically is definitely better and so I am in favor of this patch. When considering shortening the names, it is good to consider that the terms "Native MinGW", "Cygwin/Windows", and "Unix/Windows" are really not very meaningful. For example, if we are talking about Wine we should probably just call it "Wine" and describe what Wine is for people who are not aware of it.
