<AWT Dev> [12]RFR: JDK-8197811: Test java/awt/Choice/PopupPosTest/PopupPosTest.html fails on Windows

[Sergey Bylokhov]

Hi, Krishna.

This test was integrated 14 years ago, and this bug was filed 1 year ago. Can you please confirm that this is not regression and the test did not work all this time?

Because of this, the choice comes up and closes immediately, and hence the next mouse move doesnot result in another item being selected, because of which the test fails.
