Following test returns:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Not equal:

While some difference between OpenJDK and Sun JDK is expected due to different font rasterizers used
it should not be that large.

N/A

Freetype and java uses different orientation of Y axis. 
Y coordinate was not correctly converted before returning text bounds.
