Screen cap of menu

The underline for the mnemonic for the Preference menu doesn't 'appear' even though the String for the menu item (I think it is WorkbenchMessages.OpenPreferences_text) has it.   If you open up the Window menu, and then press 'P', the Preference dialog does actually launch.  

The Windows setting to show/hide mnemonics is on...so I am able to see the mnemonics for the other items in that menu.

Can reproduce in 4.2. Works in 3.8 M4.
