baseDir property not used when using custom fonts

           Summary: baseDir property not used when using custom fonts
           Product: Fop
           Version: 0.20.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: fop-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: arnd.beissner@cappelino.de


The property baseDir is not used when custom fonts are specified.

When a metrics file or a font file is loaded for embedding, and the specified
filename is relative, Fop will always use the VM's working directory instead
of baseDir.

I have a limited fix that works for me, but I didn't research the FOP code well
enough (and I don't want to while the code is being redesigned) to suggest this
as a general patch. If someone wants to do this properly or just wants the fix
for use, send email.
