I too cannot run Swing apps with the build of OpenJDK7 described here: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/build-dev/2010-May/002955.html
But my instructions describe how to use a binary FreeType for the build. This suggests that Denis is probably right about building FreeType form sources, even for newer build chains (VS 2008 and VS 2010). I didn't give it a try, though.
