This is weird.  I'm testing it with my system install, which looks to
be rev 65d6572105c0.  I compile with a patch which attempts to force
FT_RENDER_MODE_LIGHT.  But perhaps only attempts.  :-/

I see good results in ftview unless I turn on forced autohinting, then
some of the stems are one pixel wider than the majority of the stems.

So, try hitting f to duplicate.
