The issue here is that the scroll positioned is assigned during the popupshowing event, before the popup has been clipped to the screen and/or window bounds.

One easy solution is to use the upcoming popuppositioned event (bug 1206133) instead which fires after the popup's position and size has been assigned. It might cause some minor delay in opening the popup however.
[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:
Regression in 50 related to select popups.
Tracking 52+ for this regression related to popups.
Track for 51+ as this is a regression related to select popups.

Doesn't hurt to scroll the current item into view after opening the popup.
Add some tests. Kirk offered to try having a go at reviewing this.

Looks good! Just a few little things I wanted to mention.

Since we are doing this here, do we want to remove the code that used to do this?

No, it would just add more complexity and that code would still be needed for non-menulists.

Neil, this is tracked as a new regression in 50, if you think this can be uplifted would you mind filling the uplift request?

I'm hitting a conflict applying this to beta. Could we get a rebased patch?
