I have this issue as well, on Ubuntu 10.04. It happens with many menu options 
in GIMP, Inkscape, and Evolution.

Even after I uninstalled the PPA version of globalmenu, when I used the Ubuntu 
Menu Bar applet (which should only contain the Applications, Places, and System 
categories), a globalmenu was appended to the tail of that menu. This 
globalmenu worked properly (no double click).

A system search for globalmenu showed another copy of the globalmenu applet in 
/usr/local/libexec, and many gnome-globalmenu.mo files scattered across 
multiple folders.

There was also a libglobalmenu file in /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules and a .schema 
file in /usr/local/etc/gconf/schemas

I figured that these files were from a previous manually-compiled install of 
globalmenu, so I deleted all of the files I found in nautilus. Now I get menus 
in my windows again, and I will try installing the PPA version of globalmenu 
tomorrow. I am 90% sure that it will work properly now that there is only one 
installation of globalmenu.

Yep, works properly now. Here are the steps that I took to solve this issue:

- Uninstall PPA version of globalmenu
- Remove all remaining pieces of globalmenu from previous compiled installs 
manually
- Reinstall PPA version of globalmenu
- Restart gnome-panel
- Add globalmenu to panel
- Restart machine
