Picking up from ticket:12286#comment:11 ..etc
Seemingly not a huge biggie since this is a heap leak (not ports or
thread_id's leak), and even then it's a couple KBytes on each mouse
invokation.
Summary:
- depending on how the class is used elsewhere, the fix ''might'' be as
simple as removing the kill_thread()/TRESPASS()/ASSERT() calls.
- if other users do not behave as BMenu does (e.g. they expect to delete
the object themselves and cannot be easily re-organized) things are more
dicey.. It might take a rewrite/reorganization of that class.
