In the screenshots from Windows, the sharp byte code rendering which can be
seen 
in my ftview screenshots in comment#97 seems to be never used.

I personally like that sharp hinting better, but it really seems
to be a subjective thing and the general trend seems move away from
that sharp type of hinting where vertical and horizontal lines are exactly
one pixel wide at small sizes.

Newer fonts don't seem to have such byte code anymore.
