He was using rootcandy. I installed rootcandy and it doesn't display 
primary links or secondary links at all.

Other menus are placed into blocks whereas all the numerous themes I've 
tried (including the three rootcandy themes) have a checkbox to select 
or not select them, and they magically appear wherever the theme writer 
thinks fit.

In the case of rootcandy, they are selected, just like all the others, 
but as I said, they're invisible.

I've tried all the themes I have installed except for some of the 
Zen/JZen themes which seem to be mutually in conflict (enabling all 
gives assorted duplicate key errors).

And a few gave rise to security warnings.

I've perused the HTML & CSS generated and the menu module (I didn't find 
where HTML is generated) without seeing anything especially 
illuminating, but then I'm inexpert in CSS, PHP and barely conversant 
with HTML2, so that doesn't say much.

However, I had a look at the data in the table menu_links and that does 
make sense and looks wholly consistent with what I expect.
