Details:

When an NSPopUpButton is clicked, the menu pops up in the wrong location.
Instead of the currently selected item in the menu being positioned directly
over the button, the entire menu is positioned higher on the screen by the
size of one item, so that the next item down in the menu is over the button.

A possibly related issue: When popping up a menu that would extend off either
the top or bottom of the screen, the menu is repositioned so that it is all on
the screen. But in this case the mouse cursor position and tracking is not
adjusted accordingly. So as the mouse is dragged the menu highlights an item
either higher or lower in the menu than the one that the mouse is over.

Note 1: My popup buttons are loaded from a nib file, in case that is
relevant.

Note 2: I added a comment to bug #15902 about this a couple weeks ago, but it
didn't seem to be getting any attention so I decided to post this as a
separate issue.
