I have the same. I don't normally have one, set go-=m in my .gvimrc, but occasionally I want it and about two weeks ago, tried to turn it on, and no menu bar.

However, the same executable being run by another user on the machine, has the menu, even with the same .vimrc, .gvimrc, .vim directory, and the same bash initialization. I conclude that it's not a vim problem, introduced by some vim change.

I suspect some kind of window manager glitch. I run KDE, and I turn K apps' menus off by default; they get a little M in a circle button beside the minimize button that can turn the menu bar on. However, all my attempts to change the settings to bring back the gvim menu bar have failed. I have yet to try the nuclear option, renaming my .kde directory, for fear of loosing some settings I can't remember how to set up.
