Sorry, I should have mentioned the platform: Ubuntu 32bit, 12.10, from source.

But it does the same thing with the Ubuntu implementation: I am not allowed a different name. I don't get it.

I suggest you report this to Ubuntu.  They obviously tried to implement dbusmenu in a transparent way and failed.

What sources did you compile, and on what platform?  Emacs does not have a   Dbusmenu implementation, so this is not Emacs fault.  Either you are using modified sources or your platform has a modified Gtk+.
