I too cannot run Swing apps with the build of OpenJDK7 described here:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2010-May/002955.html

But my instructions describe how to use a binary FreeType for the build.
This suggests that Denis is probably right about building FreeType form
sources, even for newer build chains (VS 2008 and VS 2010). I didn't
give it a try, though.
