Since R3, there is no longer a XMenu package.  Therefore, when
compiling 18.?? GNUmacs, leave commented  the line that says:

/* Define HAVE_X_MENU if you want to use the X window menu system.
   This appears to work on some machines that support X
   and not on others.  */

/* #define HAVE_X_MENU */

in the config.h file.  You will not have the menus, but all other
things will work fine (the patches for 18.52 for X11 are located on
expo as contrib/ver-18.52.diff).

My understanding is that the X support will be completely rewritten 
for version 19 and menus will appear again.

Enjoy and happy emacsing.
