I very well could be wrong, but I suspect that this is no longer the
case. Although there may not be a "pure Cocoa" solution that you can
use.

What I understand from talking to Apple Engineers, there is no "Cocoa"
menu bar. The Menu Bar is handled by the same code for both Carbon and
Cocoa. If that is true, then you could easily create and establish a
menu bar by using Carbon calls.

I've not tried it, however, so it my suspicions may be wrong. Might be
fun to test it out, though :-)
