The original test was with the V13 snapshot (with and without the 

doEnsuredRepaint() call). We checked out the CVS version and commented 

out the doEnsuredRepaint() call and it still hangs. With the CVS 

version, we tested under Linux, JRE 6_0_10.





It happens both when resizing *and* when zooming in and out several 

steps in rapid succession. The problem is that it could hang even when 

not doing anything strange, like an ordinary resizing or zooming operation.
