A regression test RenderingToCachedGraphicsTest.java fails when running 6u10b11 pit build, with D3D enabled in Windows vista on the Nvidia Quadro card(driver version is: 7.14.10.9686), it can be reproduced in 6u10-b07 at least.

Without d3d, it is PASS, and I run the same test in winXPpro with GeForce6600, it is PASS too w/o d3d.

The log as following:
 Direct3D pipeline enabled on screen 0
Colors mismatch!

N/A

This is caused by the WDM (Aero).

Basically, when the robot takes the screenshot after completing
the test on Vista, it sometimes captures some of the Vista's 
animation effects as well: the window looks half-transparent 
in the screenshot since DWM slowly increases window's opaqueness
when it just appears - and the test fails because it's looking
for pure green.

We need to modify the test to wait for a couple of seconds
before starting the test so that DWM has a chance to 
complete fancy animations.
