UIManager errors

[Nick Watts <fatalglory gmail com>]

I'm trying to create a simple menu for my app with the new UIManager 
functions under GTK+ 2.6. I've copied most of my code for it from 
the the gtk-demo.exe app and I still can't get it to work. Compiles fine, 
but I get a long list of errors, all of which are like these (same error for 
similar code fragments):

Gtk-WARNING **: FileMenu: missing action
Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_container_foreach: assertion 
'GTK_IS_CONTAINER(container)' failed
Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_menu_shell_insert: assertion 
'GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL(menu_shell)' failed
Gtk-CRITICAL **: find_menu_position: assertion 
'GTK_IS_MENU_SHELL(menushell)' failed
Glib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer instance
Glib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 
'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE(instance)' failed

I've been over the example and the API docs and I can't work out why this is 
happening. My code is below. If anyone can help I'd be very appreciative.
