in Debian we have a program call update-menus which reads /usr/lib/menu which
contains one file per package.  Each file is parsed and pieced together via a
script provided by each window manager package.  If you look more closely you
may discover a similar approach in Mandrake.

Unless flux is radically different, the include directive should help as well. 
Look at data/README.menu.
