I've filed a bug on this, clearly demonstrating the problem (the very same code compiled against the very same SDK draws the text in a very different location); but it is obvious that nothing will be done about it. There are pervasive changes in text drawing throughout iOS 6, and backward compatibility has never been a priority. m.

>What about the above part of my original question? This is a serious issue, because it basically means that the text appears in a different place under iOS 5 vs. iOS 6. You can easily see this by making a simple CATextLayer in a project whose base SDK is iOS 6 but whose deployment target is iOS 5. Run in the Simulator using an iOS 6 destination and then using an iOS 5 destination and you will see that the text has moved significantly. So using CATextLayer in a backward-compatible project is going to be a massive headache. m.
