[Paul Taylor]

This code that was used in some circumstances for dealing with single 
images dragged and drop from certain webbrowsers (firefox) gave no 
issues in 1.8.0_25

     image  = (Image) 
trans.getTransferData("image/x-java-image;class=java.awt.Image");

but now in 1.8.0_45 causing

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: createImageUsingNativeSize

Is this a bug in the new version of OSX Java or am I simply doing 
something wrong, is there a simple workaround ?
