We are only copying code from there.

The problem is, that there is no better code avaiable if you want to do
advanced menu stuff (like merging unmerging menus).

I don't believe that the code is 'really' unstable because it is already
used in some other applications (like epiphany) and i never noticed any
problems with this applications (related to that code). Maybe it isn't
'really' stable but it is at last more stable than any code which we could
create to do the same tasks if we don't want to use libegg.
