The problem is that the top of the Emacs window appears hidden behind
the OS X menu bar and can't be accessed. The steps that I followed
are, in the top-level directory:

make distclean
./configure --with-ns
make install

I'm then opening the app by double-clicking it in the nextstep
directory. Again, I'm running OS X 10.7.3.

The= first thing that comes to mind is that you can move the frame by modifying= frame-parameters.

Here is a simple command that I use to resize and= reposition a frame:

(defun le::reset-frame ()
=A0 "when a bigger second monitor is = disconnected, this is requireda
to bring back the window controls intoview."
=A0 (interactive)
=A0 (set-frame-size (selected-frame) = 146 41)
=A0 (set-frame-position (selected-frame) 0 0))
