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.
