Changing menu shortcuts

I have a Swing application that uses a JMenuBar and set apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar so it appears in the Mac menu bar. Depending on context (which panels are shown etc.) I need to modify the menu, including reassigning keyboard shortcuts from an item in one menu to another using JMenuItem.setAccelerator().

This all works, nearly, except for a refresh problem. If I go to the new menu the shortcut isn't shown unless I go to the old menu which used to have that shortcut first. Is there any way to force it to rebuild the Mac menu bar to resync it with the JMenuBar? (I already tried setting the menu bar to null and then resetting the actual menu bar, to no avail.)
