AFAIK, all major distributions shipr FreeType with Bytecode Interpreter
*disabled* (due to legal reasons).
That's why there were a lot of efforts to get auto-hinter working, and PS
Type1 fonts - looking nice (native PS hinter/AA renderer).
So far, I am quite happy with Look'n'Feel of PS Type1 fonts in Freetype 2.1.3
(and XFree86 CVS).
TrueType fonts are nightmare, and they Should Die, IMHO.
