Actually, "menu.hook".

Thus sayeth man wmaker:
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/
The menu file indicated in WMRootMenu is looked for
here...
/etc/X11/WindowMaker/
and here, in that order. Unless, the indicated path
is an absolute path.
Note that if you want to edit the existing (Debian) menu instead of
starting from scratch, you have to first edit WMRootMenu to contain
the full path to the menu file (/etc/X11/WindowMaker/menu.hook).
wmakerconf only seems to understand absolute paths when importing
menus.
