Hmm... the config file is a bit sketchy, for one thing timeout and
totaltimeout are global options...

It's pretty impossible to figure out what would be without having all
the configuration files, including the included ones.

The other thing is that a LABEL statement should not have spaces in it.

Either way, looks like the new submenu code is what broke this for you,
which isn't really all that surprising.
