                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This part seems to be incorrect, as I see elsewhere in the code that
phys_ascent and ascent are freely added and subtracted, and the same
for phys_descent and descent.  IOW, the per-character ascent/descent
values are returned in pixel units.

Sorry for any confusion I caused.
