It's cool that the patent expiration lets us enable the bytecode interpreter. 

However, there's a severe flaw -- if there's no bytecode, apparently freetype
doesn't hint at all.

I use Inconsolata as my terminal font, and it normally looks great. After the
update, it got all fuzzy and basically unusable. This is sadly true for a great
many very nice fonts.
