I moved the files to dot.config and dot.local and attempted to 
log out then back in, but it appears that the .ICEauthority 
file was messed up. After moving .ICEauthority to dot.ICEauthority
I was able to log in and all the menus appear to be correct.

If anyone is interested, I have supplied a recursive unified diff 
of the dot.config and dot.local changes below.

Thank you for your assistance.
