The interim fix for BugId 4062024 has introduced a major memory leak involving
PopupMenus. Any Frame, Window, or Dialog which contains one or more PopupMenus
will never be garbage collected because of a JNI global ref which is never
cleaned up. Since the top-level container has references to all of its children,
none of the children will ever be garbage collected either. This is potentially
every Component in the application. We cannot ship the FCS product in this
state.
Note that we also cannot correct this problem unless we correct the underlying
problem with 4062024. The work which Mike Bronson has been doing for CBOT
should do this.
