+        * xmenu.c (xmenu_show) [!HAVE_X_WINDOWS]: If frame has a
+        minibuffer, don't let lower part of menu invade the echo area.
+
         * msdos.c (IT_menu_display): Use STRING_CHAR_ADVANCE instead of a
         "char *q" to access menu text and advance through it.  Revert the
         change that displayed ">" instead of ASCII character 0x10.
