Applied, thanks. You've looked at Courier New with anti-aliasing off,
right? If you switch it on, you won't see that horizontal lines
disappear. FreeType's autofitter has been designed for AA mode only,
and your fix has almost no visible effects if AA is activated. Maybe
this is a bug in your X server renderer which tries to apply the
`gasp' table if FreeType's autohinting is active...
