bug#37007: Problem with the menu-bars in mode "org" and "auctex"

[Anders Rydvall]

Martin!

It seems to be by random(I am maybe not enough systematic). At one 
occasion  all menus came up correctly in latexmode((latexOK.png). Next 
try came with obviously corrupted command-menu(latex_wrongCommand.png). 
I get those by dragging the mouse from "tools" upwards and then down to 
"preview". But not every time.

Today I cant get the correct menues for org-mode 
directly(0rg1.org2,org3) but, at one occasion, skifting from latexmode 
after I got the menus there the menues come also in org-mode though not 
the correct "text"(org4.png).

I've also played somewhat with fonts but no result.

Downgrading Emacs?? In that case to what version? Is it in that case 
necessary also  to downgrade GTK??

Regards

Anders
