There are currently two bug reports that might be related to your problem, although yours seems different enough that it would probably need a new bug report.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51781 This is a real bug (confirmed) that is still affecting the current version. It happens when you open a file from the command line and try to open another file using File->Open while the first one is still loading. After this, the entries in the File menu are disabled.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65117 This is a bug reported recently by Carol that I haven't been able to reproduce. According to her, trying to save a file in a directory in which the Gimp has no write permission causes the Gimp to permanently disable the Save options.
