Is this a JOGL bug with GLJPanel, a driver problem, or what?

Question

I've been trying to eliminate a problem I've been experiencing with my WorldWind Java (WWJ) application and I think I've finally taken a step torward finding the root cause, but I'm not sure whose problem it is yet or who to report it to, so I thought I'd start here and work my way up; if it can't get solved here, maybe it's a driver issue.
The issue goes something like this:
(Note: this only occurs when the -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true flag is set.)
I have a GLJPanel on my primary display that works beautifully. I drag that panel onto my secondary display (slowly) and it disappears. Poof. If I position the panel halfway between screens, I can get about half of the panel to render on the secondary display, but any further than that and it disappears. I tried this on a Frame and with a GLCanvas as well and got different results: in a Frame, if I dragged the Panel over and then dragged it back into the primary display, it would disappear on the secondary display, but reappear on the primary display once it was dragged back. With the GLCanvas, I didn't have any issues.
It's fairly simple to recreate this on my computer by using a WorldWind example that extends ApplicationTemplate and just adjusting ApplicationTemplate to use WWGLJPanels.
However, I went so far as to reproduce the problem with a plain old GLJPanel:
import com.sun.opengl.util.Animator;
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import javax.media.opengl.GL;
import javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable;
import javax.media.opengl.GLJPanel;
import javax.media.opengl.GLCapabilities;
import javax.media.opengl.GLEventListener;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class TrianglePanel extends JFrame implements GLEventListener {
    public TrianglePanel() {
        super("Triangle");
        setLayout(new GridLayout());
        setSize(300, 300);
        setLocation(10, 10);
        setVisible(true);
        initTriangle();
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        TrianglePanel tPanel = new TrianglePanel();
        tPanel.setVisible(true);
        tPanel.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    private void initTriangle(){
        GLCapabilities caps = new GLCapabilities();
        caps.setDoubleBuffered(true);
        caps.setHardwareAccelerated(true);
        GLJPanel panel = new GLJPanel(caps);
        panel.addGLEventListener(this);
        add(panel);
        Animator anim = new Animator(panel);
        anim.start();
    public void init(GLAutoDrawable drawable) {
        GL gl = drawable.getGL();
        gl.glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 0);
        gl.glMatrixMode(GL.GL_PROJECTION);
        gl.glLoadIdentity();
        gl.glOrtho(0, 1, 0, 1, -1, 1);
    public void display(GLAutoDrawable drawable) {
        GL gl = drawable.getGL();
        gl.glClear(GL.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
        gl.glBegin(GL.GL_TRIANGLES);
        gl.glColor3f(1, 0, 0);
        gl.glVertex3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0);
        gl.glColor3f(0, 1, 0);
        gl.glVertex3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0);
        gl.glColor3f(0, 0, 1);
        gl.glVertex3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0);
        gl.glEnd();
        gl.glFlush();
    public void reshape(GLAutoDrawable drawable, int x, int y, int width, int height) {}
    public void displayChanged(GLAutoDrawable drawable, boolean modeChanged, boolean deviceChanged) {}
}If it helps, the video card I'm using is a Quadro NVS 140M.

This is a bug that I'm seeing in Apple's new MobileMe service and I believe they are making use of the System Messaging Server product. (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-6.03)I can't comment on what Apple may or may not be using ;)
Specifically I have an email that's MIME HTML and what I observe is that lines >999 chars are being truncated so in my case the nested table doesn't render correctly because a whole chunk of the HTML itself on this line has been truncated.The email client generating the message is broken and Messaging Server is 'fixing' the email by truncating the line to the maximum line-length as per the standards.
Refer to "2.1.1. Line Length Limits" in http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html
