As has repeatedly been said on this list, you should NEVER change
anything in the $VIMRUNTIME tree because any update can do away with
your changes, without telling you that it did. You should rather save
the modified version of makemenu.vim as $VIM/vimfiles/makemenu.vim
(system-wide on any platform) or ~/.vim/makemenu.vim (single-user on
Unix-like systems) or ~/vimfiles/makemenu.vim (single-user on Windows).
