Description
Hello all,
In Windows 7, 64 bit using Dr Racket renders checkbox labels incorrectly.
This may not affect people using the Aero theme but if you use the flat theme in Windows 7 it is broken.

Research direction
Begin by reproducing the checkbox-label rendering problem in DrRacket on 64-bit Windows 7 with the flat theme, using the attached screenshot as a reference. No source file, test, or entry point is named; done means checkbox labels render correctly in the flat theme while the existing Aero behavior remains unaffected.
