[Image-SIG] Bug in PIL 1.1.5

[Julian Satchell]

The FT text renderer, accessed through the text method of an ImageDraw
object does not seem to understand left bearing and right bearing on
glyphs. As a result it wraps the overhanging part of the glyph, if this
would leave the simplistic (bearing-free) bounding box, round to the far
side of the bounding box. The effect can be seen most clearly when doing
character at a time rendering, as the bounding box is then small. It is
most likely to be seen on characters like "j" or "f", especially in
oblique or swash fonts.
