RE: Beta8 new Antialiasing!

[Feinberg, Matthew]

Actually, that looks unhinted to me.  The autohinter looks much better
than that -- it aligns strokes to pixels so the stroke edges don't blur
out like that.

An alternative to defining VD_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER is to
use the autohinter, which IIRC just means passing FT_LOAD_FORCE_AUTOHINT
when you call FT_Load_Glyph().
