java version "1.4.0-beta3"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta3-b83)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta3-b83, mixed mode)

On RH 7.1 Linux using the Gnome/Sawfish window manager, invoking a second heavyweight menu will place it in the same location as the first heavy weight menu.

To reproduce using the popup tester: /home/davidson/ws/popup/run.sh

1. Open First Menu with the mouse or Alt-1 then close it.
2. Open Second Menu.

Note that the position of the Second Menu is where the first menu was.

Other notes:
- This doesn't affect light weight popups.
- This doesn't occur with the Enlightenment wm.

SUGGESTED FIX Could be the heavyeight popup caching mechanism. Note that the location is set for the first heavyweight popup that appears.
