From the ChangeLog:

22 Sep 2003; <[e-mail]> gnome-panel-2.4.0-r1.ebuild,
files/menu-2.4.0.patch:
Added the gentoo menu patch, and got the fix for the default panel right
this time.

The "menu" USE variable is eventually intended to be used with the common
menu system outlined in GLEP #16: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/glep/glep-0016.html.
The "menu" USE is not official yet, but it's proposed to become official.

we might as well disable it for now, it's useless atm anyway. Should discuss
it with lanius first though.

[Comment 3 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2003-10-07 21:06:40 UTC]

lanius can you please have a look at this ? can we disable the menu USE'ing
and patching for now, until it becomes 'official' ? thanks.

[Comment 4 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) 2003-10-08 07:04:21 UTC]

yeah, remove it for now

[Comment 5 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2003-10-08 07:54:24 UTC]

thanks lanius, it's just commented out for the moment.
