This behavior is normal. The menu has a property named "Menu Visibility
Scope" with 3 possible values. The "Current Wiki" value requires the menu
to be saved by someone that has wiki administration rights, because the
menu is visible everywhere on the wiki. You don't want a simple user to add
a new menu that is visible for everyone.

You may want to try the following:

* put the content of the menu page in a separate page
* give edit rights for this separate page to the simple users that are
allowed to modify the menu
* use the include macro to include the separate page in the menu page. Do
this with someone that has administration rights so that the menu page is
saved with the proper rights.

Hope this helps,
Marius
