Could one get the old menu back using a screen reader?

I'm trying to help someone who apparently uses Firefox with a screen reader. He cannot access the menu anymore, I assume this has to do with the new(-ish) single-access menu button. Is there a way to get the old menu back using something like about:config? He cannot right-click the menu to select Menu Bar, because of the screen reader thing.

You can make Firefox Firefox 5.0 look like Firefox 3.6.18, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 5.0, or 4.0.1, look like 3.6). Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.
