If Freetype is built without subpixel rendering, we should use
the Qt 3 intrapixel filter instead of the bitmap convolution
when the Legacy LCD filter is chosen. (Closes: #448555)
It uses the old hinting mechanism and looks somewhat better, but subpixel
rendering is off. This is still worse than qt3.

It is even a bit worse here. The general appearence of the font is nice,
but the fringing is not. See

and

Compared to what we have now I like blurred fonts we had with -1 much
better.
