Sorry, I was too hasty -- the message has changed:

"-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*,*" to type FontSet
Can you see if you even have that font in any suitable charset, i.e.
% xlsfonts|grep 'helvetica-medium-r-*120'
$ xlsfonts|grep 'helvetica-medium-r-.*120'
-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso10646-1
If the locale and font codeset isn't compatible you should see just
the first line ("Missing ..."). The second line indicates another
problem, usually a missing font.
You could try
% emacs -q -xrm '*menubar*font: fixed'
and see if you get just the first message then.
That's what I get:
(gdb) r -q -xrm '*menubar*font: fixed'
Starting program: /home/kfs/fsf/latest/src/emacs -q -xrm
'*menubar*font: fixed'

But the menu bar looks really awful !!
