Hmm... I must say I'm stumped: I have no idea where this pseudo-tool-bar
comes from in `emacs-29`.  Any hint?

Indeed, I see it.  I'm unable to make use of it, OTOH.  I tried to
enable/disable `xt-mouse-mode` but that didn't help: clicking on those
entries seems to do nothing at all (and `C-h k` also just tells me).
I also noticed that F10 fails to "unroll" the menus in those buffers
where there is this funny pseudo-tool-bar.

I can click on the menu entries to "unroll" the corresponding menu, but
clicking on those pseudo-tool-bar thingies doesn't seem to do anything
at all (nothing in the echo area or in *Messages* either).

The disappearance of the pseudo-tool-bar affects both `gud-minor-mode`
and `gud-mode` buffers, so I think it's not directly related to the
sharing between those two keymaps.

IOW, I think this is a different bug.
