    Description

      r71529 gcc dbg is affected (since more than a year the very same way)

      good-path:
      1.) click on the startmenu button.
      2.) make sure you don't hover over something that expands
      3.) click on the desktop to close the start-menu
      4.) when you click start-menu-button again, start-menu is drawn fine & systray is drawn fine too.

      bad-path:
      1.) click on the startmenu button.
      2.) make sure you hover over something that expands
      3.) click on the desktop to close the start-menu
      4.) when you click start-menu-button again,
      start-menu top-most entry is not drawn initially
      After a second when it is drawn finally, the systray-icons are drawn blank

      Of course only a minor glitch, but a new reactOS user will stumble above this within the first minutes of usage for sure.
