Thanks for the suggestion.  Doing this works great when the toolbar is in
Text Only mode, but breaks the overflow menu.  The overflow menu displays as
a small rectangle (10x5 px) which is too small to actually display anything.

I tried passing nil and the original value of NSToolbarItem's
menuFormRepresentation (properly retained) to setMenuFormRepresentation and
both have the same effect.

Cheers
-Mark
