Ok, answer is quite simple. Current string rendering on athens does not support kerning. Because it is not cairo's job. Kerning should be took into account _after_ creating glyphs with cairo but _before_ extent measurement and obviously rendering. It can be done with FreeType. I made small refactoring of text measurement and added kerning support.
So, *in the latest version of Athens-Cairo* you can get extents easily:
extents := CairoFontMetricsProvider new font: StandardFonts defaultFont; extentsOf: 'Ta ffl'.
extent is an instance of CairoTextExtents.
Rendering on athens with Times New Roman size 200 gives: (Mac OSX Yosemite)

And here is what I get in Keynote with the same font

Close enough :D

Free type source sans pro in Pharo just _does not_ support kerning.
