Hi,
Webrev: http://icedtea.classpath.org/~mwong/webrevs/index.html
Summary: This is about jtreg bug in openjdk7, TestDialogTypeAhead
({openjdkdir}/jdk/test/java/awt/KeyboardFocusManager/TypeAhead
/TestDialogTypeAhead.java). It relates to bug ID 6446952, which in the
test itself includes a workaround and that causes it to fail in fedora
10/11. After removing the work around, as in my webrev, the test
passes. Does the fix look ok to push to the awt forest? Any comments?
Thanks.

Ping!
Can someone from the AWT team please respond on this?
The patch removes a hack used to workaround bug 6446952, which
(apparently) occurs sporadically on some Windows platforms. According
to the bug report
(http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6446952), the bug
itself has been fixed in 'mustang b93', whatever that is, which
implies the hack is probably no longer needed even where 6446952 was
evidenced. What we do know from our testing is that this hack causes
the test to fail consistently on GNU/Linux platforms, and removing it
causes it to succeed.
Does this patch look ok to push to the AWT forest?
