Found it. Solved it.

Just apply the patch to "/usr/share/themes/Radiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc".

It somehow works instantly, i.e. it changes the appearance of the menu
bar instantly. Don't know why ...

Caveats:

1) It's still called Radiance and not Bright.

2) One might still perceive some kind of embossed or glossy effect: maybe 
that's a perceptive interference with the background gradient but it doesn't 
show up in the pixel values.
 (This might even depend on the type of display - not all liquid crystal 
display show a static image: some try to interpolate unrepresentable colors of 
RGB24 by alternating rapidly between two colors in 6 bit color channels bla bla 
etc.)

** Patch added: "Patch (created with diff -u): set RGBA to false in gtkrc"
