Tried that. Doesn't work for Gnome, although I get:

$ fc-match -v | grep hint
    hintstyle: 3(i)(w)
    hinting: True(s)
    autohint: True(w)

Gnome uses slight, because that its default, it seems.

So, here is what I don't understand. If I have that symlink to
10-hinting-slight in /etc/fonts/conf.d, Gnome will revert to slight, although I
have it set to full explicitly. So, somehow slight is "stronger" and fonts get
blurred.

Autohinting is affected by hintstyle as well, as far as I can see. Autohinted
fonts look a lot better with full (or at least medium) hinting on.

Anyhow, never mind. I can cut my own RPM that always removes that symlink on
fontconfig upgrade.
