I think this command indeed has a bug, in that it cannot disable the
menu bar only on the frame from which it is invoked.  It _can_ enable
the menu bar on a single frame, see my response to Drew.  So I think
this command needs to be improved.  But that's another issue; the doc
string definitely needs to be improved.  Will you do that, or should
I?

Thanks.
