Description

I upgrade my Mac to Tahoe 26.0 and migrated MacPorts. I noticed after doing this that emacs using the +x11 option now has a black bar covering the menus. If I click on the correct spot, the menus still work.

Local clients appear to be okay. Remote clients display black for the menu bar. The items appear to be clickable, but they bring up empty selection boxes. Also, the "-bg color" appears to be ignored for remote clients, but again is okay for local ones.

The M-x set-background-color command seems to work in 26.3, 27.2, 29.4 remote emacs. The M-x new-frame brings up a new frame with a visible, working menubar in 27.2 and 29.4 remote emacs.

If this is on arm64, it could be this xquartz issue (which is possibly fixed in the 2.8.6 betas but not the current release version): https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/31
