[XForms] Ghost popup menu behavior.

I recently noticed strange behavior from menu popups which leave behind
a ghost menu (like the display does not get redrawn).  I can also duplicate
the
behavior with the pup.c demo program I will use as an example.

I realize the steps to reproduce the ghost menu is idiotic.  Unfortunately,
I have
to deal with a user that enjoys locating such things.

Launch the pup executable.

Select the PopUp menu button.
o     The four menu items appear.

Select the flat Menu button to the right of the PopUp menu button.
o     The four menu items remain (this is the ghost menu) along with
      the three menu items for the flat Menu button.

Does anyone else notice this behavior?  Is there anyway to correct it?
I am using xforms 1.0.90 on Redhat 9 Linux.

Thanks,
