An unexpected mouseRelease event is received after calling exportAsDrag() in mousePressed processing.
This only happens on the first mouse click not subsequent clicks.

1. Run the application provided below.
   This is from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/swing/1.4/JLabelDragNDrop.java
   with mouseReleased() method and the println() calls added.

2. Click on "Drop Here"
   mousePressed() and mouseReleased() are called. Was not expecting mouseReleased to be called.
   The following is displayed in the command prompt window.
   mousePressed
   mouseReleased
     
3. Click on "Drop Here" again.
   mousePressed() is called but mouseReleased() is correctly not called on subsequent clicks.
