The menu JMenuBar doesn't appear to work like ordinary menus. 
Clicking the mouse outside of the application area
(or on the frame border) does not dismiss the menu.

Behaviour occurs on 1.1.6 and 1.2 beta Solaris builds. Win32 appears OK.

Here is code to demonstrate the problem:

/**
 * MenuFrameTest.java

 * 1998 07 15
 * This code is for a very simple java application that demonstrates
 * an inconsistency between AIX and other platforms.  When a menu is
 * open and the user clicks on the border of the frame, the menu
 * should close.  The menu closes correctly on other platforms but
 * does not close with JDK 1.1.6 using Swing 1.0.2 on AIX.
