mlBring all to front not working?

In 10.3.8 (haven't  tested in other OS versions), my app's, "Bring All 
To Front" isn't working--it's bringing only the frontmost window 
forward from the Dock.  Also, clicking on the app's icon in the Dock 
has the same (wrong) behavior.  If I minimize two document windows, 
then click on the app, only one of the windows comes off the Dock…

According to the documentation 
(http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/WinPanel/
Concepts/ChangingMainKeyWindow.html):

"Users can bring all windows of an application forward by clicking its 
icon in the Dock or by choosing Bring All to Front in the application’s 
Window menu. These actions should bring forward all of the 
application’s open windows, maintaining their onscreen location, size, 
and layering order within the application."

What do I need to do to get this behavior working in my app?  It seems 
all done by Cocoa…

Thanks!
