Thank you for verifying it.

What font does `emacs -Q' choose for the `menu' face?  I got:

(face-font 'menu)
"-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-13-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1"

Though Emacs 24 displays no item text in menu, the font is the same
as the one that `emacs-23.2 -Q' chooses and it displays item texts
in menu.  Furthermore the following works in Emacs 23.2 but not in
Emacs 24.0.50:

(set-face-font
 'menu
 "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-92-iso8859-1")

It makes the menu bar display item texts properly with `emacs -Q'.
The result of (face-font 'menu) doesn't differ though.

Hmm...
