Re: Bug Report: PIL font management clipping tops of characters (addendum)

Some issues related to this were fixed in 1.1.7, but there are
apparently a few more things that can go wrong.  Some of this is
caused by semi-weird font metrics in some truetype files; the internal
API relies on being able to determine a pixel-level bounding box
before rendering, and it's likely that we have to change that to make
this work for all cases & fonts.
