I'm rather unclear what's going on here.
In doc/changes.txt for 2.8.12.1 I see:

height during

Looking at Ubuntu's appmenu.patch and appmenu2.patch, those changes are
all present in the 2.8.12.1 upstream source, and in Ubuntu's latest
packages (2.8.12.1-6ubuntu2) they have dropped those patches, so they
seem to think this is now fixed upstream.
I get menus with boincmgr with Gnome3, but I have given up trying to use
Gnome3 shell, so maybe that's not very conclusive.
If you can really reproduce this in with the latest wxwidgets packages
from unstable, then I guess those patches aren't actually a full fix,
or some other upstream change broke this.
Cheers,
Olly
