[OS X] Oblique slant does not display properly in Intellij IDEA/WebStorm/PyCharm

[chrissimpkins]

This is a known issue with the Java font renderer on OS X platforms for these JetBrains editors. It renders a pseudo-oblique with a larger slant angle (of the regular font) instead of the installed oblique font. I have confirmed that this occurs with other typefaces and verified this is in a known issue in the JetBrains issue reports. The issue has been reported on multiple occasions over the last year in their issue tracking system. I added my own 2 cents and will update with any information that I receive. Sorry for the troubles.

Tentatively have a fix for this issue in this test build. Please let me know if it works on your platform.
