I am using anti-aliasing to 8 bits per pixel (basically just the default
flags and rendering modes, not monochrome). 
Other characters are fine, and several other fonts too.

Actually I didn't check the bitmap type (pixel format) for this bitmap,
but is it possible that just this one glyph is rendered as 1 bpp (without
me asking for it) while all other glyphs being rendered as 8bpp (using the
same code)? I'll check it tomorrow when I'm in the office again, but I
doubt that's the issue.

It must be something else.
