This bug is generally on any Intel platform; not just WIN 98. It
can be reproduced using the SwingSet demo. Here's the steps:

- Call runnit.bat to bring up SwingSet.
- Notice there is a File->About menu and the mnemonic sequence is
Alt+F,t.
- Make sure your IME is set to Japanese mode (Katakana or Hiragana),
and type Alt+F,t. Alt+F would select the File menu as it should.
t would show up in the IME "edit field" instead of selecting the
About menu item.

This sequence was tested using an English keyboard. If you set IME
to English mode, or type Alt+F, Alt+t, then the sequence works fine.
Perhaps Swing did not recognize the letter t when it is coming thru
an IME in Japanese mode.

Anyway, the same type of mnemonic operations works fine in other
window applications like Wordpad, Notepad and Netscape.
