Hello,
freetype 2.8.1 seems to have introduced a regression in rendering text
on RGB screens (most screens are BGR).
When fontconfig is configured as follows:
<match target="font">
<edit name="rgba" mode="assign">
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
</match>
rendering artifacts can be observed in Mozilla Firefox:
2.8:

git bisect points at 410f3799b6a193e20b34c574e6f0f2be2428b1eb ("[smooth]
Harmony LCD rendering.") as the first bad commit.
