FYI, the issue with not restoring them menu has to do with the menu bar being swapped out when the underlying NSWindow receives a - windowDidBecomeMain: instead of -windowDidBecomeKey:. Unfortunately, this is code deep in the native parts of the AWT, so a Java user-space workaround does not seem possible, besides passing a non-null, visible parent to the dialog constructor.

The crash is a subtle correctness issue regarding autoreleased objects, which is still under investigation. 

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the update! Is the menu item enable/disable problem also related?

I'm not sure. Do you have a bug ID for the menu item's enabled state getting out of sync that is unrelated to the crash (6975997)?

As I'm sure you understand, this is a very big problem for us: any customer who updates Java on their Mac breaks our app. I hope and assume Apple is working to correct these issues and release an update ASAP.

Of course I can't discuss future schedules, but we do take bug reports of behavioral regressions very seriously.

Thanks for filing the crash report, the steps to reproduce are very clear,
Mike Swingler
