Let's try to continue from here.  Instead of the "trivial" patch please
now use

diff --git a/src/xfns.c b/src/xfns.c
index 3f0d8f3fcd0..e47f5219a6f 100644
--- a/src/xfns.c

   if (!minibuffer_only && FRAME_EXTERNAL_MENU_BAR (f))
     {

Do you see any error message in the terminal?  Now set

(setq default-frame-alist '((menu-bar-lines . 0)))

and do C-x 5 2.  How does that behave?
