fxruby users - Mar 2006 - FXMenuBar.new(self) raises ArgumentError

I''ve been away from FXRuby code for a while, and was surprised that

    mb = FXMenuBar.new(self)

which used to work (in 1.2 I guess) now in 1.4 causes this:

  No matching function for overloaded ''new_FXMenuBar''
(ArgumentError)

It was easily fixed with:

    mb = FXMenuBar.new(self, LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP|LAYOUT_FILL_X)

But it seems like FXMenuBar.new should have a default that works. Not a
big issue though...

That changed in FOX 1.4, although I don''t know the reasoning for the 
change. I made the same change in FXRuby to keep the APIs consistent, 
but I agree that I should have provided for some kind of backwards 
compatibility there (even if FOX didn''t).
