Choosing 'New' will indeed create a new menu.  The problem is that the
menu the editor creates has a bug in it.  The menuID of the newly
created menu will be zero, instead of the menu's resource ID.
The menu appears to work fine within resedit, but when you call
GetMenu()/GetNewMBar() (or was it MenuSelect()), the mac bombs.
