    You can tell on the LCD hinting, the fonts look sharp and crisp, though
    they're certainly not rendered correctly.
Thanks for the screenshots. I could not spot much different between the no hinting and autohint, but the lcd version is obvioulsy buggy. As to why? No clue. Best I can suggest is that the widths or kerning is being reported/used incorrectly.

My understanding of LCD hinting is that it would only work when writing directly to a screen raster. It won't work properly when writing to an intermediate raster that can be relocated around on the screen:
