Comment 3 _ tboudreau 2003-09-15 23:04:00 UTC 
This is a JDK bug - no subclass of BasicSplitPaneUI can be used with
GTKLookAndFeel - the initialization code in BasicSplitPaneUI expects
things in UIDefaults that are not there.

I've put a workaround in the trunk which simply checks if the classname
of the current look and feel is
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel.
