Yup you're right.  I realised I was probably wrong sometime after I posted, but as
I didn't have anything more useful to suggest.

I do however have the feeling I've seen something like that once before in the dim
and distant past (e.g. more than a month ago) 

Somethings you can try at random are 
1. Removing and re-installing the IME,
2. Removing every input method /except/ the Japanese IME,
3. Turning the 'Language Bar' off / on from the taskbar toolbars options.
4. news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general

(not necessarily in that order).
