The simplest exec (see attachment) failed on Win NT 4.0 (SP 6).

To reproduce:

1. compile Exec.java
2. Run "java Exec <program to exec>" to test.
   E.g. java Exec C:\Winnt\System32\Calc.exe

On my NT box, the process Calc.exe is created, but you cannot see a window
for the calculator. It just doesn't come up.

I tried the test with b75 and it works fine, so apparently the problem was
introduced fairly recently.

---------- Exec.java -------------
import java.io.IOException;

public class Exec {
public static void main(String args[]) {
new Exec(args);
}

Exec(String args[]) {
try {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(args[0]);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

This is the regression test results from the duplicate bug.

Name: as83306 Date: 10/18/2001

Regression tests
java/awt/dnd/Win32DropTYMEDSelectionTest/Win32DropTYMEDSelectionTest.html
java/awt/dnd/Win32TYMEDSelectionTest/Win32TYMEDSelectionTest.html
are failing with Merlin build 83 on windows_2000, host australis.

It looks like the drag part of the test is not reaching it's target and as a result, cannot drop. The test times out waiting for two
minutes.

 For test hardware config's, see http://sqesvr.eng/st3/jdk1.4/docs/Merlin-hw.html
