JViewport: View-size caching can lead to incorrect scroll pane size

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
D:\eclipse-SDK-2.1.1-win32\eclipse\workspace\Test>java -version
java version "1.5.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-b64)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-b64, mixed mode, sharing)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If a JScrollPane is contained in a layout which stretches the scroll pane horizontally, the result of JScrollPane.getPreferredSize() is incorrect (too high).
This is caused by the scroll pane's JViewport, caching the view size.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile and run the submitted source code which illustrates the bug

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The two scroll panes of the code example should have same size.
ACTUAL -
The scroll panes are different in height.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Setting the scroll pane's viewport to a JViewport subclass which disables view-size caching.
