In the original frame, access menu Foo and submenu Bar, using (1) no prefix arg, (2) a prefix arg introduced using `C-u', and (3) a prefix arg introduced in another way, such as `M-2'. The actual prefix arg you give is not employed in the :visible code (same thing for :enable). Instead: * For no prefix arg given, or for any prefix arg given other than by using explicit `C-u', the value used by :visible is nil. * For a prefix arg given using explicit `C-u', the value used by :visible is 4. That is, in the former case you see always "PP: nil" output, and for the latter you see always "PP: 4" output. This means that you cannot use the prefix arg in a menu-item test. This should not be the case. (This problem is not new.)
