A proposed fix for this was uploaded to jaunty-proposed 6 weeks ago.
Unfortunately this happened by foregoing the SRU process, so it got
overlooked:

openjdk-6 (6b14-1.4.1-0ubuntu10) jaunty-proposed; urgency=low

  [ Skipping release numbers accidentally used for test builds ]

  * Remove all UTF-8 sequence definitions from the font configuration.
    LP: #255983.
  * Fix issues in the IcedTea plugin, updating to IcedTea 1.5:
    - Freeze with empty string return from Java side.
    - Handling of nested jar archive files.
    - Use custom authenticator for javaws, so that it can handle SSL sites
      correctly.
    - Forgo permission check if JS source is [System] (i.e. Mozilla
      extension/chrome).
  * Apply missing pulseaudio bounds checking patch to 1.4.1.
  * Fix problem with the ARM assembler interpreter, when executing a 'new'
    bytecode with a double on the top of the stack (Edward Nevill).
  * README.Debian: Document using the different VM's.

Please test the version in jaunty-proposed.  Apart from this bug, please
also test whether sound integration still works (since this changes the
pulseaudio related code), and for regressions in the mozilla/firefox
Java plugin, by exercising some Java applets.

Thank you!

Bug description:
i am on Ubuntu 8.04.1, effect is the same on i386 and amd64, Package: openjdk-6-jre, Version: 6b11-2ubuntu2

Swing UI elements (lists, labels) have additional vertical space, some applets user interfaces are therefore broken with openjdk. In contrast sun-java6-jre works fine with tvbrowser and other applets. I attached a good and a bad png-image. The java program to render the example is ugly but still useable with openjdk but i think the error is shown clearly in comparison of the bad openjdk.png with the good sun sun-java.png.
