I don't have many ideas for the time being, as it works OK for me.
What you can check is the properties of the text object and look
for something weird. You can also try to place a text object at
point (0,0,0) and set axis limits to [-1 1 -1 1 -1 1] (just to check the
text object is inside visible world for OpenGL).
