I followed the recipe in this doc:
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Menu-Bar.html#Menu-Bar
ie
Put that code consisting of 3 define-keys in a file and loaded it
Emacs started as "-Q"
The menu does not work
(Actually the first couple of clicks show no response; then only the
darker background of menu WITHOUT TEXT)
See attached screenshot
The screenshot is not very accurate: its black in emacs but when the
screenshot key is pressed it begins to disappear.
Evidently the capture happens as its fading out
But its clear that there is NO TEXT IN MENU
After F10 it works
ie the words menu opens and shows
Backward-word M-b
Forward-word M-f
This is on 28.0.50
But its same on 27.1 also

Works perfectly for me, both on GUI and TTY frames. This could be
GTK-specific, though: can you or someone else try in a non-GTK build?

Which I guess is another evidence that the problem happens only in GTK
builds.
Thanks.

Works for me too, both on GTK+3 and no-toolkit builds from master.

Maybe only GTK+2? The OP reports:

cairo version 1.14.8) of 2020-10-16 built on SS

I put the following in a file, "emacs -Q /tmp/file.el", `M-x
eval-buffer'.
(define-key global-map [menu-bar words]
(cons "Words" (make-sparse-keymap "Words")))
(define-key global-map
[menu-bar words forward]
'("Forward word" . forward-word))
(define-key global-map
[menu-bar words backward]
'("Backward word" . backward-word))
And the menu works fine for me. This is with:
In GNU Emacs 28.0.50 (build 124, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.23, cairo version 1.16.0)

Yes, could be. Thanks for the data points.

(Sorry Eli for sending below to only you personally.
Resending to debbugs)
-------
Just found that the breakage is more extensive.
Start emacs28 with -Q
M-x run-python
The "Complete" "In/Out" and "Signals" menus are all broken
Other menus fine
ie Those define-keys are not needed to experience the breakage

I cannot reproduce this, either. I guess people are right: this is
specific to GTK 2.x.

Couple of responses:
From a detached impersonal perspective
Oho that muddies the waters!
Earlier it looked like a gtk 2.x problem; removed in 3.x on
Now it looks like gtk 2.24.31 has the bug and gtk 2.24.32 doesnt
So if the problem is between those it seems a hair-breath!
Else its elsewhere ie gtk is being wrongly blamed
From my personal perspective
Please close the bug!
Multiple reasons
1. Ive got a bug-fix (well a bug-duct-tape!): Press F10 twice and the
menus get set right
2. My laptop is old and creaky (as am I!) and I'm unlikely to be able
to cooperate if I'm offered bug-fixes that involve big (re)builds
3. When I see things like
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/61389/binding-xf86cut-and-xf86copy-to-emacs-commands#comment96761_61389
and
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/48561/is-there-an-x11-free-build-of-emacs-that-can-run-on-wayland-not-going-through-x
;
it would be better if going forward, Emacs support Wayland and drops
gtk2 (lucid? motif??)
No this is not an argument or even a suggestion; its just a
recognition that Im on the wrong side of history!
