This bug was fixed with the fix of bug #10905. Also, it is not possible
to reproduce it given the instructions: Taking a screenshot with the
PrtSc-Key works now even with gnome-panel opened.

  can't take screenshot when menu on panel is opened

Bug description:
  I can always press the "Print screen" key to take a screenshot of my
  desktop. When i click on say, the System menu in the gnome-panel, it
  just doesn't work anymore.

  Note: this is in fact only a symptom of bug 10905 that states that no
  hotkeys/shortcuts whatsoever can be triggered when a menu is open.
  there seems to be a dispute if that is a bug or an intended design
  decision. thus bug 10905 and its duplicates always get closed. people
  seem to agree that not being able to take screenshots is not intended
  bahavior and considered a bug. thus this report is allowed to stay
  open :)

  a known workaround for taking screenshots of menus is to directly launch the screengrabber with a delay like so:
  gnome-screenshot --delay=5
