It can be because you are now using a newer Gtk+ version.  Please use 
report-emacs-bug so we can see that at once instead of having to ask.

If indeed you are using Gtk+, it is due to the introduction of native windows.
To see if this is the case, start emacs with
% GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 emacs
and try again.
