I could reproduce it on my Gentoo system, but not with the latest upstream Cairo. The reason why Gentoo version was causing the bug is the following Gentoo-specific patch. --- cairo-1.7.6-orig/src/cairo-ft-font.c 2008-09-29 21:43:13.000000000 +0100 +++ cairo-1.7.6/src/cairo-ft-font.c 2008-09-29 21:52:19.000000000 +0100 @@ -1705,7 +1705,9 @@ options->base.subpixel_order = other->base.subpixel_order; } - if (options->base.hint_style == CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT) + options->base.hint_style = CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT; + + if (other->base.hint_style != CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_DEFAULT) options->base.hint_style = other->base.hint_style; if (other->base.hint_style == CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_NONE) Therefore the problem is related to hinting.
