This works for me:

LAYER
     NAME "credits"
     STATUS DEFAULT
     TRANSFORM lr
     TYPE ANNOTATION
     FEATURE
         POINTS
         -5 -5
         END
         TEXT 'blabla'
     END
     CLASS
         LABEL
             TYPE TRUETYPE
             FONT "FreeSans"
             POSITION ul
             COLOR 0 0 0
             SIZE 8
             FORCE TRUE
         END
     END
END

The idea is to put the object on the angle you want, (here lower right, 
with 5 pixels offset in X an Y). Then put the label upper left of this 
feature. I don't know if font could change something.
