The emboldening code seems to change the metrics of the glyph. In your
screenshot the FT_Glyph.advance.y became non-zero. Your patch solves this
problem by ignoring the changes to the metric. Though this works in this
particular case this doesn't look like a good solution.
The other parts of the patch would kill artificial emboldening for
non-antialiased text (e.g. for an 8bit display the GetGlyphBitmap1() method is
called) and for vector graphics (e.g. Fontwork, flash export etc. call the
GetGlyphOutline() method).
So instead of killing most of the artificial emboldening feature I suggest we
should work on getting the metrics of the emboldened glyphs right. Which version
of the freetype library is involved here, which features are enabled and what is
the name of the problematic font?
