<Swing Dev> a possible bug in javax.swing.text.Utilities.getTabbedTextOffset

[Phil Race]

It would be good to file a bug capturing as much as you can how to 
reproduce this
and pointers to where you think the problem lies.
It sounds like it may be code related to trying to support hi-dpi but that
will become clearer with the additional info.

As the bug involves fractional metrics, it is not clear that it can be demonstrated without kludges, so I do not have a test program. If anyone is interested in the code and sees the same problem that I see, I will let them take action on this.
