A bit of info on this one.  The menu coming back appears to be fixed
with trunk versions of dbusmenu.  But the "nothing happening" bug is
still there.

As best as I can tell, this is because the menu dismisses upon being
clicked and sends a dbus message to empathy telling it which item got
clicked.  But at the same time, empathy is receiving a focus-in event,
which causes it to recreate its contact menu.  By the time it processes
the dbus message, the item which got clicked no longer exists, so it is
ignored.  In other words, a race condition.

Thinking about how to fix it...
