In the png you posted, if they are the same font, the diference is
definitely hinting.  There are options in ft to control whether
hinting is used, and if so whether to use the byte code or ft's own
autohinting algorithm.  

I don't see anything in the Xft1 src (either version) that references
those flags, and am getting instructed glyphs.  (I can read them as
small as 3 pt at 133 dpi.)

Did you use lsof to confirm that the app was using the same version of
ft and the same font file under both examples?  I, eg, ended up
getting a different font for 'mono' from my font.conf config than I
was getting from my XftConfig config.  lsof will show exactly what
font file is being used, as will /proc/$pid/maps.
