[plt-scheme] DrScheme menu order

Hi, everyone.

I'm now translating DrScheme UI strings to Japanese by creating the file 
"collects/string-constants/japanese-string-constants.ss" .

The default English UI shows menus in the menu bar
in the order of File, Edit, View, Language, Scheme, Special, and Help.

But after translating menu strings,
it shows in the order of File, Edit, Help, View, ... (same as above)
Why this happens?


I found a hint in the file english-string-constants.ss which says:

 ;;; raw menu names -- these must match the 
 ;;; versions below, once the &s have been stripped.
 ;;; if they don't, DrScheme's menus will appear
 ;;; in the wrong order.
 (file-menu "File")
 (edit-menu "Edit")
 (help-menu "Help")
 (windows-menu "Windows")

What does this mean?
How should I modify these definitions?
