[Swing] disappearing Window Decorations

Hello,

I am experiencing the following problem and I'd be interested to hear 
whether this is a known issue and whether there's a cure for it:

System:
- Debian Linux
- BlackDown 1.4.2 / Sun 1.4.2_03
- Gnome 2.6
- Windowmanager: Sawfish / Metacity

I have implemented a Swing application which opens various JFrames. 
Occasionally a JFrame will be shown WITHOUT its decorations. This only 
happens on Linux (set-up see above), NOT on Windows.

We have tried both Blackdown and Sun's VM. And we have also tried both 
Sawfish and Metacity. The problem seems to occur more frequently when 
using Sawfish.

Other window managers are not an option as Gnome 2.6 requires either 
Sawfish or Metacity.

My temporary fix: I have now set the default to 
JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true). With this setting the 
decorations never disappear.
