Thanks for the bug report.

This also can be reproduced without s-trim, with just:

       `((global menu-item ,str ignore))))

If the display engine doesn't support newlines in the
menu-bar/tool-bar/tab-bar, then we could simply remove newlines
before feeding the tab-bar items to the display engine.
