gvim menus don't work properly on unity

[Chris]

Binary package hint: vim

Click syntax -> show filetypes in menu.

Click syntax, observe how the letter categories don't expand.

This only affects gvim when running in Unity.

I can confirm this on Natty as well.

[Chris (ccouzens)]

I just tried it on Oneiric, it seems to have been fixed there.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I've got absolutely no menus having upgraded to Oneiric. Pointing at the top bar gives nothing.

After a while you get "WARNING **: Unable to register window with path '/com/canonical/menu/4200024': Timeout was reached
