It still does not work as expected. I just debugged UIComponent and it turns out that the bug is in the setBorderColorForErrorString() method. The black border appeasr when the origBorderColor is NaN. So the fix would be something like
if (isNaN(origBorderColor))
origBorderColor = getStyle("borderColor");
I just wanted to fix the code on my machine and then recompile the
framework.swc but noticed that there's no build_framework.xml Ant script
any more in Flex 2.0.1
