Bug on menu/menubutton widgets

Dear all,

I have found a bug in the menu/menubutton management.

If you build a menu with a separator as the first entry of the menu, i.e.

STk> (.m1 'add 'separator)
()
STk> (.m1 'add 'command :label "entry1")
()
STk> (menubutton '.m :text "test" :menu .m1)
#[Tk-command .m]
STk> (pack .m)
()
STk>

by clicking on the menu button you will get the error:

*** Tk background error:
unknown option "-state"
**** Tk error ("") "
    (command bound to event)"


If I remember well, I have seen something similar in an old Tcl/Tk news (I tried
with the tcl/tk I have -fully patched- but I was not able to reproduce it).

Any suggestion?

Regards

Giorgio
