FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Windows 2000 SP4

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Placing a JButton in a submenu of a JPopupMenu causes a strange glitch where clicking the button causes it to get pressed down but it doesn't fire an action event and stays stuck pressed down.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1) Run included code under jdk 1.5
2) Right-click anywhere in the JFrame that appears
3) Select the subMenu item, which opens up a sub menu
4) Click the "Click me" button

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Button gets pressed and then pops up again and an actionEvent is fired (console should print "Clicked")
ACTUAL -
Button gets pressed, stays stuck pressed and no event is fired

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
