FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.2-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-beta-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-beta-b19, mixed mode)

FULL OS VERSION :
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The various border implementations in javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalBorders should return copies of their border insets on getBorderInsets() calls.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the code given.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR :
Insets are changed only for the menu item in question.

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:
All menu items (Foo, Bar, and Baz) show up with a big gap on
the left, even though the insets are only being changed for menuitem1.
This bug does not occur for Windows LAFs.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Create a copy of the Insets object that you receive before modifying it.
