<Swing Dev> [9] JDK-8169897: [PIT] javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicGraphicsUtils/8132119/bug8132119.java fails

[Philip Race]

I am not sure why the test went to the trouble of looking for Arial.
If there was a good reason (Alexander ??) an alternative is to initialise

String fontName = "Serif".

although swapping out Arial for Serif is a very odd choice.
Arial is a Sans Serif font and Serif fonts are not usually used in UIs.

So "SansSerif" would be better
