I'm replying to my own post since was able to solve this problem and
also am able to replicate it as many times as I wish.

I was able to solve the xterm menu vanishing problem with a
.Xresources config from fak3r.com as stated in my earlier post.

I was trying some bigger fonts to use with xterm but adding them and
then starting xterm would make xterm size very large, more than the
screen size. So I edited .Xresources and added a xterm*geometry option
to a reasonable geometry size.

The size became okay but all three xterm menus vanish just after
adding the geometry option. I remove the geometry option, the menus
are back. I add the geometry option, the menus are gone.

Can someone try to replicate this problem too?
