I got the same error when adding gnome-main-menu: 
"OAFIID:GNOME_MainMenu"

however I did 2 installs of 8.04 on the same machine, the first time for
some testing purposes the second time as a real install.

The first time I didn't have any trouble whatsoever with adding, the
second time I did. The difference was in the configuration settings in
/home/username. The first time I added gnome-main-menu BEFORE restoring
my entire home-dir from my backup, and the second time I added it after
I copied it. And only the second time I got this error.

A few minutes later I discovered that the file attributes (rwx) weren't
properly set (due to the copying from backup) and after I did a chmod en
chown on my entire home dir everything worked. So if you run into this
check your home dir file attributes too!
