      The Slider in Solaris gets too many events; it does not match Win95
      behavior.

      Applet tested:

          http://fas.sfu.ca:80/1/cs/people/GradStudents/heinrica/personal/curve.html

      Win95 behavior looks basically correct -- interactions with slider
      button change slider value by one (at time of mouse up):

          - quick click and release
          - mouse down, hold, and mouse up
          - mouse down, drag around, mouse up (even if outside of window)

      Solaris behavior shows too many events sent to slider -- slider value
      can change by one up to any number for a single mouse down-up
      pair:

          - quick click and release (change by 1)
          - mouse down, hold still, mouse up (change by 1 at time of mouse
            down, not at time of mouse up)
          - mouse down, drag around, mouse up (change by any number -- looks
            like 1 for mouse down, 1 for each mouse dragged event, and 1 for
            mouse up)

      Summary of Win95 versus Solaris differences for slider button
      press-release:

          - slider value changes by 1 (Win95) versus 1-to-any number (Solaris)
          - slider value changes at mouse up (Win95) versus at mouse down (Solaris)
