Summary:  [NSApp mainMenu] returns nil

Original Submission:  when using a gorm created menu, [NSApp mainMenu] will 
return nil. I've tried this with the 'menu' outlet in NSApplication connected 
and with it not, with the same results.

Tests indicate the mainMenu is initialized before awakeFromNib is called.   
I've made the necessary change to support this.

It should now return the correct value.  GJC

NSLog(@"%@", [[NSApp mainMenu] description]);



will log (nil)



Is this because I am doing it in awakeFromNib? should it not work there? In 
other gorm files, none of the connections will be functional until after [self 
window] is called. (using an NSWindowController). Is this a similar problem? In 
this case it is awakeFromNib in the application delegate, and there is now 
windows in the gorm file.
