Classic VM (build JDK-1.2.2-001, native threads, symcjit)

Attached is a trivial Java Application which reproduces my problem. The code
works correctly with Swing 1.0.3. It
does not work correctly with Swing 1.1.1, or in JDK 1.2.2. (At first we
were trying to convert to Swing 1.1.1, but now we have decided
to convert to JDK 1.2.2, so are no longer interested in Swing 1.1.1).

In my real app, I have a JTabbedPane with one
or more tabs displaying info about an object. When the user selects a
different object, I show new information
in the JTabbedPane -- sometimes in the same tab panels as for the
previous object (but with new info in each
panel!), and sometimes with a somewhat different set of tab panels.
The application does a removeAll() old panels
and then adds back the panels needed for the newly selected object.
It works correctly in JDK 1.1.8 + Swing 1.0.3.

Swing 1.1.1/JDK 1.2.2 problem: Blank panels displayed.

The trivial app simply keeps adding back
the same 3 panels, with new data in each panel. Obviously, each set of
panels has a top-most panel which shows when the new set of panels gets
displayed. The first time, the top panel
displays correctly. When you click to bring up
the second set of panels, the top panel is *blank*. If you select a
different panel in the group and then reselect
the originally top-most panel, it shows correctly.
If, when a given set of
panels is showing, you select one
of the lower-priority panels, and then
click to bring up a new set of panels, the
top panel of the new set displays correctly,
but if you then go on to another set of panels, the top panel displays
blank in the subsequent sets of panels.

A fix or workaround will be appreciated.
This is our prime production system application.
It looks like a Swing 1.1.1 bug to me.

Trivial program to recreate bug follows:

This reproducable in kestrel-rc2 also.
