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
