Description
As part of JDK7 accessibility new testing requirements from Oracle, tried to test the JDK7 platform with screen readers.

JAWS primary Oracle approved screen reader is not working as expected.  It is woring ok with JDK 6 updates

The test environment is:

    * Windows XP SP2 or SP3
    * JDK: 7- b125 latest from java.net (32 bit - http://www.java.net/download/jdk7/archive/b125/binaries/jdk-7-ea-bin-b125-windows-i586-13_jan_2011.exe)
    * Java Access Bridge 2.0.1 (or our internal builds of 2.0.2)
    * JAWS 12.0.512-32bit

This is a stopper for the screen reader testing with JDK7.

Comments
EVALUATION Not reproducible on all builds after b134, fixed by the CR 6826397 fix.
