They are dispatched as regular key events. The following script handles the standard menu and back buttons:

function OnGUI() {
	var e = Event.current;
	switch (e.type) {
		//case EventType.KeyDown:
		case EventType.KeyUp:
			switch (e.keyCode) {
				case KeyCode.Menu:
					OnMenuButton();
					e.Use();
					break;
				case KeyCode.Escape:
					OnBackButton();
					e.Use();
					break;	
			}			
			break;
	}
}
