[10.6.4, Xcode 3.2.4, MacOSX10.6.sdk]

Somewhere along the line, the version of 23.1 I had built for Snow
Leopard started showing me blank menus for everything.  The menu items
are present in the menu bar, but all blank.  If you click enough on a
menu item, you can usually get it to appear.  Once it does appear, it
stays for a while, but can go away later.

So I upgraded to the current trunk from bazaar and the problem's still
happening there too.  Imperically, the following patch to nsmenu.m seems
to fix this problem:

=== modified file 'src/nsmenu.m'

-     since key equivalents are handled through emacs.
-     On Leopard, even keystroke events generate SystemDefined events, but
-     their subtype is 8. */
-  if ([event type] != NSSystemDefined || [event subtype] == 8
-      /* Also, don't try this if from an event picked up asynchronously,
-         as lots of lisp evaluation happens in ns_update_menubar. */
-      || handling_signal != 0)
-    return;
/*fprintf (stderr, "Updating menu '%s'\n", [[self title] UTF8String]); NSLog (@"%@\n", event); */
+  if ([event type] != NSApplicationDefined)
+    return;
   ns_update_menubar (frame, 1, self);
}

...however, I'm not familiar enough with this code (or with NSEvent) to
be sure that this fix is the correct one.  With this patch, the menus
all function and nothing untoward is getting logged to /var/log/system.

I have not tested this on prior versions of OS X, nor on GNUstep.
