The default fonts were changed, now Bitmap StrikeFonts are used instead of a 
TrueType font.
Thus, the rendering method is completely different, and the use in StrikeFont 
rendering of some BitBlt  methods revealed bugs in the alpha channel handling 
in said methods that previously went unnoticed.
(Thus an updated VM/BitBlt plugin in required for them to render correctly).

Cheers,
Henry
