as per bug #937200 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-7/+bug/937200) :
after some debug i found that the /etc/font/conf.d/65-nonlatin.conf is the one that makes java use a bad font.
remove it and restart the java and things will be back to normal.
of course, i dont know what removing that font definition will break, possible non-latin languages :)
