If Freetype is built without subpixel rendering, we should use
the Qt 3 intrapixel filter instead of the bitmap convolution
when the Legacy LCD filter is chosen. (Closes: #448555)
It uses the old hinting mechanism and looks somewhat better, but subpixel
rendering is off. This is still worse than qt3.

(left - qt3, right - qt4)
It is even a bit worse here. The general appearence of the font is nice,
but the fringing is not. See

and

Compared to what we have now I like blurred fonts we had with -1 much
better.

PS: No need to CC me. Just in case anyone wonders...
Are you sure that's related to this patch? Qt also added some patches in
4.5 to more closely respect the Fontconfig hinting settings. Could you
try switching between Slight, Medium, and Full hinting in your
Appearance settings? Previous to 4.5 Qt would always do full hinting if
subpixel antialiasing was enabled.

Samuel
