Without the fix, the test reports 6 failures for "MS Gothic", "MS PGothic" and "MS UI Gothic" fonts when text antialiasing is off and when LCD antialiasing is enabled. If greyscale antialiasing is enabled, the glyphs are stretched as expected, this case was handled in JDK-8204929; it can be used as a workaround.
