I am talking only about the font rasteriser and some behaviours
that are entirely specific to it.

Is this change to the general Java2D rasteriser or to some
font-specific rasteriser?  I find that when I fill GeneralPath splines
that cover small areas the color looks too light for my taste.  For
example, if I draw a spline path filled with solid black with size
roughly equivalent to a font glyph at 12 points, it comes out light
gray.  While I can believe some lightening is necessary to blend the
A-A edges with the solid portion, I would prefer dark gray, or darker.
If these are different rasterisers, how can one obtain darker colors
under A-A?
