Can you try the following

python -c "import _renderPM;print _renderPM._version,_renderPM.__file__"

If it doesn't report 0.98 then you should get the latest version from

http://www.reportlab.com/ftp/win32-dlls/2.3/_renderPM.pyd

The latest file size is around 421kilo bytes. Replace _renderPM.pyd with
the latest version. If you want to build _renderPM.pyd yourself you need
to get a recent copy of freetype2 as well and build that, then alter
renderPM's setup.py to point to the freetype2 location.
