If this is the case, then it may be a bug worth investigating. Can you please
file a bug report (better on the upstream OpenJDK bug tracking system, unless
is really IcedTea specific, so I can track this with the AWT group directly)?

Please, also let us know the bug ID so we can look into it.

Yeah, I thought it was based on the gtk-qt-engine; nevertheless is still
suffering of all the same problems the JDK gtk2 laf has.

Cheers,
