Yes, MacPerl uses Mercutio. Ramon Felciano, the developer of Mercutio, has 
already informed developers and is planning to issue a corrected version
of Mercutio RSN. I expect to use that version in the next release of MacPerl.

Until then, if you are experiencing crashes when using menus in MacPerl (I don't,
but I tend to use keyboard equivalents much more frequently than menus), it should
be safe to apply either of the patches on that page to your copy of MacPerl (Doing
so will, however, void your warranty :-)
