It is a known issue with Freetype autohinter. This will not be fixed.

I'm afraid this is wontfix for Maemo5. Same freetype and same font used.

Jakub, do you think this could be addressed for Harmattan?
If so I'd leave it opened here (as maemo.org Bugzilla does not have a "Program"
category). Internal ticket is still open, by the way...

There will be fresher versions of both Freetype and Fontconfig. Though no idea
what font we will use for the user interface when Maemo6 ships ;)
