One of my users (who applied Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4) is reporting:

java[235] <Error>: GCGetGlyphDeviceMetrics failed: error 1

after which all the text turned to wacky glyphs : mostly boxes and a few random symbols.

He quit and relaunched and it started working again.

Any ideas? I don't have enough info to file a bug report.

A potentially relevant change was that we flipped the default graphics pipeline in J2SE 5.0 back to the Quartz renderer. You might try explicitly setting the Sun 2D renderer using - Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=false if you can reproduce the issue.

One other new effect was when composting two images using AlphaComposite the transparency goes to black instead of clear.
