Comments
EVALUATION SynthMenuItemUI.getComponentState doesn't take into account the SELECTED state of an item but just returns if it's DISABLED. We should also correctly recompute the component state in GTKLookAndFeel.synthStateToGTKState method to return DISABLE for disable menuitems. We need this action for choosing the correct color of the text.

EVALUATION It's old style GTK L&F. There should be some problems with GTKParser. In modern version of GTK L&F (jdk 6.0) this problem doesn't exist because all such issues are handled by the native layer.
