This is the problem. I know the menu (which resides on a substack) is being
found, because the custom menus I created show up fine.
After playing with it some more, it seems that MC ignores the first line of
the button menu contents, and uses whatever appears on the second line as
the default item under the Apple menu. Don't ask me why. I put nothing but
a return on the first line, and the second line reads "About myapp...", and
it appears to work fine.
