For the case with a menu width > the item rect, yes, you will have to
truncate.  There should be a Script Mgr call to handle this in Sys 7,
but Sys 7 will ship with a popup CDEF anyway.

For the case with a menu width < the item rect, you should erase the 
item rect before calling _PopupMenuSelect so it won't look ugly.

If it kills you to do things this way, axe the arrow.  These are guidelines,
not laws...
