OK, to compare 5.6.7, 6.4.1 and 7.0.0beta, I compiled all three versions under
centos 6.5 and
created a simple mapfile:
http://s.markus-spring.info/legend-agg.map
Using the AGG renderer only because of its much better rendering, and got these
results through the legend command:
mapserver 5.6.7 (http://s.markus-spring.info/legend-agg-5.6.7.png)

mapserver 6.4.1 (http://s.markus-spring.info/legend-agg-6.4.1.png)
legend-agg-6.4.1.png
mapserver 7.0.0beta (http://s.markus-spring.info/legend-agg-7.0.0beta1.png)
legend-agg-7.0.0beta1.png
There are clear differences in the rendered font sizes, but 5.6.7 and 7.0.0beta1
do not truncate the text, only 6.4.1 does.
For me the question is if (or when) 7.0.0 is production quality already, and not
only the mapserver itself but also mapcache, as the internet map services of the
City of Munich are going to use that for the background maps.
Best regards
Markus
