Comment(by erikos):

 [http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.4/GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings--gtk-
 menu-images "gtk-menu-images"] should default to True. Looking at the
 [http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.4/GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings.description
 description] if there is no XSettings manager (like in the case of Sugar)
 the defaults are taken from an ini file /etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini. In the
 case of the XO the settings.ini sets the "gtk-menu-images" to False.
 Setting it to True there does show the menu items.

 In sugar-build the menu-items are present neverless of
 "/etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini" (from adwaita-gtk3-theme-3.4.2-1.fc17.i686)
 has "gtk-menu-images" set to False. Even when I start sugar-build from a
 virtual console. Probably it is getting the values from the xsettings
 manager.

 As long as we don't have an xsettings manager we should be safe to set the
 setting in sugar-session like we do with the theme/icon-theme and the
 font. We should also check if other seetings hurt us which we don't
 handle.

 {{{
 [Settings]
 gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
 gtk-icon-theme-name = gnome
 gtk-cursor-theme-name = Adwaita
 gtk-button-images = 0
 gtk-menu-images = 0
 gtk-auto-mnemonics = 0
 }}}
