What is the situation with SanSerif fonts? Serifs may turn to spikes
at low resolutions. This is problematic for the emboldener.
If SanSerifs are better, try -0xDDB4 on ftoutln.c:978. This will more
aggressively reject 150-degree or sharper spikes.

Gamma: 1.8
Top row: git master, no emboldening.
Bottom row: emboldening (default CFF parameters, lower size limit 4ppem), your safe guard and -0xDDB4.

Still ugly.

You can experiment yourself if you want to, clone my branch and do e.g. "LD_PRELOAD=objs/.libs/libfreetype.so ftview 16 /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSerif.ttf"
