I've uploaded 1.4.5.55N to ftp.afterstep.org.  I included a CHANGELOG, 
but here's the highlights:

o the Quit menu works better now

o previous patch to DrawMenuBorders is backed out
o when the option "DrawMenuBorders" is off, the menu no longer has any 
  border, filling the empty spaces that were still there

o added a new option, "TextureMenuItemsIndividually". scary name, but 
  cool feature: when it is off, the entire menu will be textured, not 
  each menu item individually. this was done by DrawMenuBorders == 0 
  previously, but that was non-obvious - hence the new keyword

o added new keywords to allow better control over menu colors; this required 
  adding another option to TextureTypes and TextureMaxColors
  MTitleForeColor: menu title foreground color (was HiForeColor)
  MTitleBackColor: menu title background color (was HiBackColor)
  MenuHiForeColor: selected item foreground color (was MenuForeColor)
  MenuHiBackColor: selected item background color (was HiForeColor)
  MenuHiTextureColor: selected item background gradient (was MenuTextureColor)
  MenuHiPixmap: selected item background pixmap (was MenuPixmap)

o menus are now sorted by type first (directories before files)

o Nop menu items are stippled, and Nop "" produces a separator. this is 
  mainly useful when TextureMenuItems == 0

BTW, something amusing: try using look.NewFeatures, and scroll a large 
menu. ;)
