[X4U] Missing Services in Apple apps

The discussion about using Services to give TextEdit a word count
service got me looking. I found that I no longer have a Services menu
in TextEdit. Looking further, I found that the only Apple
application I can find that has a services menu is iTunes. I do not
know when I lost the Services menus.
I have services menus in all non-Apple applications I have viewed (about 10).
To try to solve it, I did the following:
1. Logged in as a different user. The Services menus WERE
present as a different user
2. In my account, ran Cocktail in full and rebooted.
3. Took my entire ~/Library/Preferences file out of the Library
to the desktop and rebooted.
Nothing has restored Services to any of my Apple applications in my
user account.
Day before yesterday I installed the latest Developer Tools. I don't
know if that is related, but it is a change so I mention it.
I can't find comments about this in Googling the topic.
Does anyone have an idea what might have made my Services go away for
Apple applications, or have an idea of how I might proceed in
debugging it?
