I believe that was a gnome-vfs bug - it would create a blank menu file
in ~/.gnome2/vfolders, which blocked the main system menu file.  It
should be fixed now.

We would generally consider it a bug if one version of GNOME
interferes with the configuration of another version - if people
change the meaning of configuration keys, they are supposed to rename
those keys.
