[ft] anti aliasing off and error with letter spacing

[Pinter Tibor (tibyke)]

hello there!

i used to be able to achieve perfect m$ ttf experience with earlier 
versions of freetype and gd as shown in http://www.tibyke.net/ft/ft_12.gif,
but with latest version of freetype (tweaking a little with ftoption.h 
=> enabling bytecode interpreter and unpatented hinting) all i can do is 
http://www.tibyke.net/ft/20050929.

it seems as it just screws up letter spacing or something.

could someone give me a hint what could be wrong and what to do/read to 
be able to get the same results as with earlier versions?

thanks in advance!

best regards,
