I'm not able to reproduce this here (git/master on Ubuntu 10.4, Python 2.7). Can you send and/or link to an example broken image? The way in which it is failing may illustrate the cause of the problem. It could also be that the difference in the freetype library/settings is causing enough difference to trip the threshold (we've seen that before). If that's the case (i.e. they look identical to the human eye, but there are some low-level differences in the anti-aliasing), we probably just need to increase the difference threshold on those tests. If, however, those tests worked on this system until recently, "git bisect" may reveal what caused the breakage.
