We are hitting the ASSERT_NOT_REACHED() at the end of fixMenusReceivedFromOldClients() every time we try to bring up and editing context menu in TOT. We are hitting the assert because all of the comparisons are failing. It should be sufficient to compare addresses since UI_STRING *should* return the same exact string every time, but for some reason, our menu titles, though identical in content, are not identical in address to the strings being generated by UI_STRING. 

One possible solution is to do a real string comparison, but this should not be necessary. Did something change to UI_STRING recently so that we do not always return the same exact string?

But! If I call UI_STRING twice in a row inside fixMenusReceivedFromOldClients(), it does return the same *exact* string twice.
