I'm really looking forward to seeing this one fixed! It's annoying.

I think what's
causing it is a bug, like so:

The application menu and the Help menu are generated by the system
(because they have to be hooked up to system-wide functions); that's
why they appear before the application finishes launching, possibly
even before -awakeFromNib is called. For some reason - a bug presumably
- interrupting the launch process (like with a modal alert) breaks the
system's connection with the Help menu stored in the app bundle,
causing the system to generate a fresh, duplicate menu.

So, can anyone confirm that this is bug, and if so, is it already known?

The behavior seems surely wrong, so calling it a bug is a good bet. Your
analysis of how it happens makes sense. That's all you need to file a bug
with Apple's bugreporter -- why don't you go ahead and do it. Or if you
can't for some reason, tell me and I'll do it.
