Well, you don't provide much information about what version of FreeType 
you're using,
wether you enabled the bytecode interpreter, or even the name of the 
fonts affected by
the change, don't you ;-)

Apart from that, rendering has changed considerably between the current 
sources and
FreeType 2.0.9. See the following page for details:

I'll be rewriting part of it this week-end by the way...
