If any patch affects older MENU DEFAULT behavior in submenus, it will 
probably be in a positive way, as MENU DEFAULT combined with MENU 
GOTO in submenus seems to be broken since before 4.00. I can still 
see the broken behavior as you describe it, but IMHO making it work 
with MENU GOTO seems more useful.

BTW...

In Changes in 3.72:

 "menu default" can now be specified after "menu begin", to
 indicate that a specific submenu should be the default entry.

But in .doc/menu.txt:

 MENU DEFAULT (Only valid after a LABEL statement.)
    Indicates that this entry should be the default for this 
particular submenu.

So menu.txt and the changelog are stating 2 different things (read 
them carefully).
