JDK:1.4.0-Beta32

This bug applies to other Swing components like JButton, JCheckBox....
In any Arabic word that has joined characters, the Mnemonics underscore 
extends under the last two joined characters instead of the correct character 
for Mnemonics.

To reproduce bug:
1- Compile and run the following code
2- Observe the Mnemonics underscore under joined Arabic chracters.
3- Verify that two characters are affected by this behavior
