Yes, I've added this to com32/modules/Makefile now.

Yep, that seems like a bug. The MENU GOTO is the important part of that
problem. I've replied to Tomas' mail with a patch.

Do you have a full description of this problem? In what way does
display.c32 not work correctly?

Right. That looks like a small bug fix. I replied to Matt's email.

This is a missing feature, rather than any kind of a bug. I don't see a
reason to block 4.06 for this. If someone writes a patch it can be
applied to a future release.

Again, this looks more involved than a simple one-line bug fix. If
someone wants to send patches then I'd be happy to review them.
