Details:

NSFont -set calls -_flippedViewFont if the drawing context is flipped.  A new
font is created and put into the font cache, but never retained.  This causes
it to be repeatedly deallocated and reallocated for drawing.  This patch
repairs this by caching the flipped version in a similar manner to the screen
font.

This means the flipped font must be released on deallocate, which requires a
new instance variable in NSFont.h, therefore this patch must wait until next
binary incompatible release.
