Hmmm. Nothing changed when I upgraded, and that was back at -rc2.
One thing is that occasionally (in the past) I've noticed that IW
would change my font list after an upgrade. Hasn't happened since
the mid 2.0.0.x series, though. That might be something to consider.
Here are the relevant sections of my xorg.conf.
