I just tested it.  Please see:

The code in the latest CVS has improved, but still not as good as before.
The "holes" in certain letters (u, n, o, u, d, etc.) are squashed
in the bold headings.  I wonder why...  Anyhow, the pictures correspond to
the following versions:

  freetype (2.1.3-10) unstable; urgency=low

    * FreeType 2.1.4rc1 with CVS update as of 2003-02-18.

  freetype (2.1.3-9) unstable; urgency=low

    * Backed out David Turner's modified bluescale implementation (2.1.3-8)
      and put back David Chester's original patch (2.1.3-7) until rendering
      with bytecode interpreter turned on is improved.  (See Bug#179450)
