OK, thanks, I changed it to gtk_widget_queue_resize (menu_bar).

I just did:

      if ((children == NULL) && (GTK_IS_MENU_ITEM(child))
          && (GTK_MENU_ITEM(child)->right_justify))
        {
          child_allocation.x = allocation->width -
              child_requisition.width - xborder;
          child_allocation.y = allocation->height -
              child_requisition.height - yborder;
        }

so the help menu always goes at the bottom right. It works if there's
only one right-justified menu item.

Is wrapping a generally useful thing? I could make it into a patch, with
"GtkMenuBar::wrap" to turn it on and off (off by default, I guess).
