The text drawn by my GTK apps from MacPorts does not use sub-pixel anti-aliasing, despite the fact I have tried to configure my ~/.fonts.conf file to specify that it should be used.

Some further details for future reference:

* It appears that GTK apps are using Mac OS X's native ATSUI to draw text. At least, using sampler on a GTK app shows pango calling in to ATSUI. This would explain why configuring ~/.fonts.conf would do nothing: it isn't using Xft to draw text!


* This bug appears to be related:

I have not tried rebuilding pango without ATSUI support, since I've spent enough time on this and need to get some "real" work done.
