In the SGI popup menus it appears that the menu code keeps a list
of callback functions you've called while a dopup is outstanding.
So, if you make a dopup call from a callback function (so there is 
another dopup call that hasn't returned yet) the original callback 
function is again called - forming a loop of callback procedures.  
:-(

Why would this be so?
