FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java 1.5.0-beta-b32c

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When JSeparator is in a JMenubar, it paints horizontaly as if its weightx was set to maximum, when enlarging frame.

REGRESSION. Last worked in version tiger-beta

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Just try the code sample joined hereafter

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Just JMenubar behave as JToolbar for managing JSeparator. Surprisingly, the same code behave correctly with previous JDK (problem not encountered with 1.4.1)/
ACTUAL -
JMenubar seems to fill the available space and distributing along all JSeparator

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
