Description
When a FileDialog is dismissed by double-clicking on a file name, a MOUSE_RELEASED event is sent to whatever Component is beneath the FileDialog.  This is demonstrable using the test/java/awt/Button/DoublClickTest regression test, or the attached test case.  This happens on win32, but not on Solaris.  See also 4530087, 4531849.
Comments
EVALUATION It is not a dublicate of 4869912. That is more 4869912 is a regression from 1.3. This behaviour is not a regression and it seems that it is not a bug. Looks like MOUSE_RELEASE happens on underlaied component which is not overlapped by the time. We should investigate is this assumption true. If so I am going to close the CR as not a defect.
