bug#6608: Menu bar not working

["Jan Djärv" <jan.h.d@swipnet.se>]

I can for the life of me not reproduce this, neither on trunk, 100771 or 
100776.  Please give some more info, like compiler version, architecture (32 
or 64-bit?), Gtk+ version?  Optimise flags to the compiler?  I assume you can 
repeat this with emacs -Q?  I don't have Kubuntu 10.04, but regular Ubuntu 10.04.

Now, the Motif menus have problems though, different for Lesstif and 
Openmotif.  Openmotif ones behave like you describe, Lesstif doesn't but they 
don't close right.  I don't know if this is related.
