Ok, answer is quite simple.
Current string rendering on athens does not support kerning.
Because it is not cairo's job. Kerning should be took into account
_after_ creating glyphs with cairo but _before_ extent measurement
and obviously rendering. It can be done with FreeType.
I made small refactoring of text measurement and added kerning
support.
So, *in the latest version of Athens-Cairo* you can get extents
easily:
extents := CairoFontMetricsProvider new
font: StandardFonts defaultFont;
extentsOf: 'Ta ffl'.
extent is an instance of CairoTextExtents.
Rendering on athens with Times New Roman size 200 gives: (Mac OSX
Yosemite)

And here is what I get in Keynote with the same font
Inline image 2
Close enough :D

Free type source sans pro in Pharo just _does not_ support
kerning.
