[7u6] Please review my fix for 7171163: [macosx] Shortcomings in the design of the secondary native event loop made JavaFX DnD deadlock

[Alexander Zuev]

Steve,

   you are absolutely right - this native method is used only by our 
implementation of the DnD so
i may just rename it and the only reason i have not done it is to 
minimize the scope of the change.
So if you think renaming the method is required i will gladly do it.

With best regards,
Alex
