Java 7 problem: Alt+Tab vs report windows

I am using Moneydance 2011r2(803) with Oracle Java 1.7.0_05 (Java 7u5), and found an annoying little problem. If I create a report, I now have 3 Moneydance windows: My Finances, the report dialog, and the report. With Java 6, I can use Alt+Tab to cycle through these 3 windows and raise any one. But with Java 7, there is only one entry for Moneydance in the window list - the main My Finances window. I can't use Alt+tab to raise the report window if it gets covered. It is as if the window manager thinks the 2 other windows are modal dialogs, but they aren't.

(This is Oracle (Sun) Java, not OpenJDK. System is Linux, window manager is Xfce. The problem does not exist with OpenJDK 6 or 7, however landscape mode printing is broken under both of those so I can't use them.)
