It's not just gtk1 fonts that look bad. It is any application that uses the old core fonts mechanism of X11. It looks to me like they completely removed the bytecode interpreter that is needed to make the old fonts look good without anti-aliasing. > > I am really lost trying to figure out which component might be the > culprit (Freetype, Fontconfig, Pango, GTK+ etc.)... I believe it is in freetype. I'm looking how to fix it without breaking my nice gtk2 fonts. If I recompiled freetype to enable bytecode hinting, then things wouldn't look so hot on my anti-aliased fonts.
