Menu buffer/window appears in the nav window.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start nav.
2. Pick a file to edit in nav.
3. Hit M-` to bring up the menu buffer/window.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would *like* to see the file buffer's window split horizontally and the menu 
buffer appear in the new window below the file.  Instead, the menu buffer 
appears in the nav window but the nav window is tall and narrow and the menu 
buffer expects to be in a wide but short window.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

nav: the 20110220 version
emacs: 23.1.1 using -nw in Terminal or in the console
OS: Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat

Please provide any additional information below.

Maybe the fix or workaround requires a change to nav or maybe it requires a 
customization in emacs. If it requires a customization to some other part of 
emacs, then at least document it in the nav install instructions.
