Since 'Tkinter' itself contains no class 'OptionMenu', I guess you
are using the fine Pmw package by Greg McFarlane.  The option
menu provided by Pmw contains several atomic widgets as components.
So you have to decide to which component your font attribute
should belong:

      menu = apply( Pmw.OptionMenu, ( parent, var ) + tuple( option_names ),
                    { 'menubutton_font':PANEL_FONT } )

Hope this helps, Peter
