My machine has an older graphics card, so I have a naturally opaque menu bar. It does have a subtle and quite pleasing gradient. So if this hint really results in a solid white menu bar, then it might be turning off more than just the translucency.

Interestingly, my actual menus *are* slightly translucent (just like in 10.4), even though the menu bar is not.
