[Freetype] Grey characters

[Dennis Bjorklund]

When you render text with both hinting and antialias, then some
characters are rendered with to little black. In effekt the characters
looks grey and when you see a complete sentence it's easy to see that some
parts are black and some are grey.

I'm sure you all know about this, but we that don't know much about font
rendering wonder why, and if there is a solution to the problem. Will
freetype 3 (or whatever) solve this?

Typicly the 'o' is to light and the 'w' is to black.

It's sad that it's more or less just with 12-16 points fonts that this is
a problem, and it's just these sizes that almost everyone uses for the
normal text they have. For fonts 18 points and up the result is just
wonderfull.

If anyone would like to take some time and explaning why, I would be
very greatfull.
