The separator items in a PG MENU resource are specified in a 
non-standard way that was legal until Panther. ResEdit can reliably fix 
the problem, at least for menus in the menu bar. I haven't looked at 
hierarchical menus. Follow these steps to convert the separators to 
standard form:

open the project's .rsrc file in ResEdit
double-click the MENU resource
for each menu
  double-click it
  for each separator item in menu
   click it
   click the Text radio button
   click the separator line radio button
  next separator item
next menu
save the .rsrc file
