No, that part behaves as it always did. Controls receive mouseEnter 
normally. Previous versions of the Mac engine did not send the message 
to the card or stack if there was no control under the mouse though. In 
LC 7 it does. Apparently it always did that on Linux, so the behavior 
was specific to the platform.

You can test by creating a new stack without any controls, just a blank 
card. Put a mouseEnter handler into the card or stack script. Move the 
mouse into the stack window. In LC 6.x nothing will happen. In LC 7 the 
handler will execute.
