Public bug reported:

Motif 2.3.4 includes a fix for upstream bug #1565 (The active window
changes to inactive when the drop down list is clicked) [1].  A side-
effect of this fix is that keyboard navigation of menus does not work
correctly.

Steps to reproduce:
Install and run xball (or any other Motif application with a menu bar).
Click on 'File' in the menu bar (or press Alt-F).
Now press  Left Arrow or Right Arrow and the highlight should move left and 
right through the horizontal menu options (File, Actions, Options and Help).
Now press Up Arrow, Down Arrow or Enter and nothing happens.
