Bug description:
  Emacs has a pretty non-standard way of using GTK that makes some
  assumptions about GTK internals. These have been broken with gtk 2.18.

  Symptoms: Dynamic menus are no longer updated if klicked on with the
  mouse. They are updated if the menu is opened with F10.

  Steps to reproduce:
   - Install e.g. auctex and open a .tex file in Latex mode.
   - Klick on the menu bar and see the an empty menu.

  Expected result:
   - a non-empty menu.

  Original Report:

  Subject: Emacs language menus are blank

  Binary package hint: emacs22

  The attached picture should say it all.
  I have tested C/C++, Python, Erlang and they all show up blank.
  I've had this problem for a while not (a month or so, maybe?), but I'm not sure exactly when it showed up. I suspected it was just me for a while, but I've tested with blank ~/.emacs.d directory for defaults as well.
