The class: 0 line indicates that EuGTK has tried to lookup the "get_active" method for whatever control "MenuRaw" was declared as, and then tried all the controls from which it inherits methods, and finally got to the end of the line without finding a method by that name. So, what is "MenuRaw"? IOW, what was it created as?
This line 824:
if get(MenuRaw,"active") then
I should probably change the error message to something more informative.

MenuRaw is a GtkImageMenuItem and it's supposed to optionally have a check mark beside it.

I don't see any mention of an optional checkbox, just an optional image: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkImageMenuItem.html
This would be the check menu item here: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/gtk3-gtkcheckmenuitem.html#GtkCheckMenuItem
ck1 = create(GtkCheckMenuItem,"new_with_label=>Open"),
The above creates a check menu item with the label "Open"
"new_with_mnemonic=>Hello _World!" creates one with a hotkey = W
I've looked for examples which use both a checkbox and an image, and haven't found any. If you need something that implements both an image and a checkbox, you may have to create a plain GtkMenuItem and then pack your own image and checkbox into it.

Thanks. That works.
