The fix was submitted a few months ago by Juan, and has been in VMMaker since shortly since. AFAIK, the only offical VM including it at the moment is John's beta 5.0 VM's for OSX.

I've built a version to use on Windows including it, but that's more of a private intermediate solution while waiting for an official release including all the fixes that have been made since 3.11.5 :)

Cheers,
Henry

    I worked on this at the Lille sprint, the reason the shift to DejaVu
    StrikeFonts hasn't been pushed (by me) is the BitBlt bug that Juan
    fixed recently, and which is not in published VMs yet.

    Basically, due to overflows in the primitives when dealing with alpha
    values, when you drag a window in Pharo the text turns partly
    transparent, which is not very nice.
    (Squeak doesn't cache the window being dragged in a Form, then bitblt
    that instead of redrawing the entire window, so it doesn't experience
    the same symptoms of the bug)

    If you want to use it in Core, evaluate StrikeFont installDejaVu,
    before new VMs with the fix included become generally available I
    wouldn't recommend using it by default though.

    Chers,
    Henry
