Subject: 23.1; Xresource menuBar does not work as advertized

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email-masked] mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Appendix "D.2 Table of X Resources for Emacs" of the Emacs
info manual states that:

| `menuBar' (class `MenuBar')
|      Give frames menu bars if `on'; don't have menu bars if `off'.
|      *Note Lucid Resources::, and *note LessTif Resources::, for how to
|      control the appearance of the menu bar if you have one.

Yet, "on" produces *no* menu bar; you have to use "1" to
enable it. "off" on the other hand works as expected (maybe
silently cast to "0"?).

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
