AWT problem on linux

[David Young]

	So that you don't have to wait for the component size, I think you
can override Component.addNotify() so that it, say, notify()'s some
object or sets a flag when the Component's peer is created. I *think*
that a component's size is know when its peer is created.... Maybe
someone can fill us in on the details?
