/**
 * Reproduce awt bug. Running with no command line args
 * will show an improper layout. Running with one or more
 * args of any value will exclude the MenuBar, and the
 * layout is correct.
 *
 * We are attempting to set the height of a Frame with a
 * MenuBar and NO COMPONENTS, to be used for a main menu.
 * We can easily hard code the height, but this is not
 ( portable. ALL ATTEMPTS AT DETERMINING THE CORRECT HEIGHT
 * HAVE FAILED DUE TO AWT BUGS. Frame.getInsets().top
 * is useless, because frame.setSize(height, width) fails
 * to have the desired effect.
 *
 * We suspect the bug show below is related to our inability
 * to set a main menu frame height in a portable manner.
 * The following should work but doesn't:
 *
 * frame.pack();
 * // Height should be insets.top + titlebar.height
 * int height = frame.getInsets().top + frame.getSize().height;
 * frame.setSize(mainMenuWidth, height);
