Shouldn't that be:

         root->descender    = -(FT_Short)root->bbox.yMin;
         root->height       = ( ( root->ascender + root->descender ) * 12 ) / 
10;

In my experience, descent measures the distance from the baseline to the 
bottom of the glyph and is positive for glyphs which extend below the 
baseline.  Of course, I don't understand the context of this code and may
be completely off base.
