Run the test below, XAWT, Mustang b10.  Choice's popup doesn't show up on a screen.  Not reproducible in Tiger.  Mustang regression.

public class Test extends java.awt.Frame {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        Test test = new Test();

        java.awt.Choice choice = new java.awt.Choice();
        choice.add("Choices");
        choice.add("one");
        choice.add("two");
        choice.add("three");
        choice.add("four");
        choice.add("five");

        test.add(choice, 0);
        test.setBounds(50, 50, 100, 100);
        test.setVisible(true);
    }
}

EVALUATION Test runs okay after un-patch files XBaseWindow.java and XlibWrapper.c, seems to be a regression of 5108694. ###@###.### 2004-11-05 13:27:16 GMT A few pieces of code with override-redirect windows depend on the value of correct root window for the screen which should be their parent. This value is calculated in a certain preInit() in XWindow.java. In 51086694, we did remove wrong re-calculation of the parent second time in XBaseWindow, after that preInit(). However popup of the Choice does depend on this re-calculation since it resets the parent window value at some point. Fix to this should be to move this necessary reset up the stream before XWindow.preInit(). ###@###.### 2004-11-09 14:00:33 GMT
