Yes this sounds like a bug. But From desciption is not clear wheter it is IcedTea-Web or Openjdk.

It is worthy to try openjdk 6 / 7 / 8 snd proprietary plugin and Proprietary JDK 7/8 and icedtea-web to eliminate dead branches.

And hence you see it in Jdialog I suspect OpenJDK itself. Not Icedtea web.

Was the window manager always the same?

Are you able to prepare minimalistic reproducer? ( I guess main class with few lines of jdialog setup). ?

Then we can try on various JDKS for you.
