Sorry, but I am not able to reproduce this.

This is quite expected. The M_GENERL menu graphics lump isn't included
in prboom-plus.wad anymore (for quite some time) because it was
constructed of the letters of the original DOOM menu font. However,
prboom-plus detects that one or more mof the enu graphics lumps are
missing and thus renders the entire menu in the HUD font.

Is it possible that you still have a very old copy of prboom(-plus)
somewhere in your $PATH? Could you please provide the output of "which
prboom" and "which prboom-plus" as well as "readlink -f `which prboom`"
and "readlink -f `which prboom-plus`". And please do also send the
complete output to stdout and stderr, the last few lines aren't that
comprehensive without any further context.

Thank you very much,

Fabian
