I spoke too soon again. A better way is "set the menubar of this stack 
to <blah>" instead of using "defaultmenubar". While setting the default 
menubar does work, it screws up things in development mode, particularly 
when using the message box. Setting the stack's menu bar is enough and 
leaves the development environment intact.

So the better script is:

  on preopenstack
   put "menus" & the number of this cd into theMnuGrp
   set the menubar of this stack to theMnuGrp
  end preopenstack
