Description

This bug only happens in MacOSX. It doesn't appear on Linux. I haven't checked
Windows, though.

In the provided example the staircase effect happens in the wrong direction on
MacOSX. The posititve dy values have the effect of shifting the glyphs to the
top and not to the bottom as expected.

This is a screenshot how it renders on MacOSX:

This is the expected rendering as it works on Linux:

This is a very strange bug. Maybe yet another MacOSX, java bug?

My Java version on MacOSX10.4 is:
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-112)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-64, mixed mode, sharing)

Thank you for having a look at this problem.
