I see a big improvement after setting:

Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault
#Xft.dpi: 96
Xft.antialias: 1
Xft.hinting: 1
Xft.hintstyle: hintslight
Xft.rgba: rgb
Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault

in ~/.Xresources

I'm saddened that I have to revert to messing with Xresources instead of 
something more modern.

Having done that, I don't know if I'm seeing an effect for autohinting.  
Sure would be nice if I could actually tell if my attempt at autohinting is 
done correctly.  I can't even tell if fontconfig read these files.

Other than that, it does look pretty nice.
