Here are the step to reproduce:
1) disable twinview if needed
2) open an xterm
3) enable twinview
4) place xterm on the right monitor and maximize it
5) open one of the menus with ctrl+click on the right of the window

The menu don't go far enough on the right to be under the cursor.
It looks like xterm got the xorg screen width at start up (certainly not
to draw the menus out of the screen) but then keep this size forever.

Rereading the menu code to refresh my memory - xterm doesn't control the
point at which the menu is popped up - I'm pretty sure this is done in
Xaw.

(I can look into it, but suspect there's no clean way to force Xaw to
adjust to switching the display width).
