This turned out to be a problem with Microsoft Windows 7, with "Windows Ghosting". Here is a description and a solution:

BTW, I see that Mathematica 9.0, unlike Mathematica 8 and before, evidently does not employ java to implement its Manipulate functionality. So my earlier presumption that this was a java/win7/32-64 problem were misplaced.
