Confirmed, also running latest Hardy. I've noticed this problem for a
while now, and it is especially noticeable when Gnome Appearance
Preferences/Font is set to Subpixel/Slight.

The offending font configuration file is /etc/fonts/conf.avail/53
-monospace-lcd-filter.conf - if you delete or move this file, the
problem will go away.

I suggest that this file is removed entirely; I'm not sure of its
rationale. Those with CRT should be careful when assessing this bug,
because on an LCD screen, fonts look terrible and inconsistent in Gnome
Terminal.

** Also affects: fontconfig (Ubuntu)
