Subject: bug#7106: Unable to customize menu-bar startup from .emacs file 
Date: Sun, 26 Sep 2010 09:03:55 +0800
I put this in my .emacs file:

(custom-set-variables
 '(gud-gdb-command-name "gdb --annotate=1")
 '(large-file-warning-threshold nil)
 '(menu-bar-mode t)
 '(shell-dirtrack-verbose nil))
(custom-set-faces
 )
(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on)
Note the (menu-bar-mode t). When I fire up emacs, I have to M-x menu- 
bar-mode to get a menu bar. I am running GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (mac-apple- 
darwin, Carbon Version 1.6.0)

I have posted my problem to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3793806/how-do-i-display-the-menu-bar-in-emacs-every-time-i-start-up

The suggestions there didn't work; other users noted they did not have  
this type of a problem; I am concluding, then, that the problem lies  
with this particular build.
