Just to be completely clear: this problem exists on Windows Vista, NOT Windows XP.

Running the JCK test /tests/api/java/awt/interactive/PageDialogTest on the Windows Vista OS causes a crash.

The crash occurs with 5.0, but not 6.0. The issue is also reproducible with the IBM JDK.

Reproduction instructions:

1. Run the PageDialogTest test:

java javasoft.sqe.tests.api.java.awt.interactive.PageDialogTest -platform.hasPrinter true -TestCaseID ALL

2. Click on the 'PageDialog(PageFormat)' button and in the window that comes up select 'Landscape' orientation and click 'OK'.

3. Click on the 'Done' button.

4. The same window as in step 2 should appear. Click on on the 'PageDialog(PageFormat)' button - the JVM crashes.
