I can't reproduce your problem with the test program you provide.
java version "1.4.2-p6"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 
1.4.2-p6-root_05_feb_2004_21_59)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-p6-root_05_feb_2004_21_59, mixed 
mode)

uname -a
FreeBSD henk.thuis.klop.ws 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #7: Sun Feb 22 
16:39:27 CET 2004     root@henk.thuis.klop.ws:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HENK

I'm using Icewm 1.2.13 as window manager.
I suggest you try other window managers and look if they give the same 
results.

Ronald.
