Did another test to confirm that the problem is in cairo. The attached
program will generate a /tmp/out.png with text in RGB, BGR, VRGB and
VBGR ordering, the vertical ordering will show up correctly, while the
horizontal ones are identical. Furthermore on option of the type:
cairo_font_options_set_antialias(fopts, CAIRO_ANTIALIAS_GRAY);
will still produce subpixel anti-aliasing, not grayscale, i.e. all the
same problems that can be seen in the Ubunte Font Rendering Details
dialog.
