It does not, the spec of the parent is still applicable to this method since the "associated popup menu" is actually a part of the JMenu. And we have other similar methods as well like JTextComponent#setComponentOrientation. 
Note that even JMenu#applyComponentOrientation says nothing about "associated popup menu" but instead uses "getMenuComponents" - this is why that method is overridden.

It is still under deiscussion in JDK-8264217
