Why not report it upstream?

I may upstream it, but it's at the bottom of my TODO.

 That said, *please* make mention of whether you're using AA or not in
 your bug reports, because it makes my life easier.

  In that case, please stop KDE from turning it on by default when you ask 
for more effects in the startup wizard.  (it does currently)

Does this mean I've to rebuild the packages if I want to use AA? Is
there a compile option that turns AA-Support on or off?

I think AA will be nice in KDE3 since then AA-Fonts should be
supported to live near non-AA fonts (QT3)... I hope you understand
what I mean ;)

It's just a checkbox in the KDE config.

Support will be much better in qt3, but suckssuckssucks in qt2.2.

You might be able to make this happen more often by installing a hook for
bug (does reportbug support something similar?) which collects this
information automatically, if that is possible.
