"An improved anti-aliased algorithm:
FreeType 2 produces etremely smooth outlines at small sizes, with its new
anti-aliasing algorithm, which produces bitmaps with 128-levels of gray.
Actually, the new algorithm is in some cases faster than the one in FreeType 1,
which only produced 5-levels of grays."
Perhaps it's necessary (or at least useful) for fixing <URL:
