It was an experiment to align the Mac/Gtk ways of text rendering. This made the DRT resuts as compatible as possible, compared to the Mac port. When using the right set of fonts (eg. copied from a Mac) that now leads to the same metrics, unfortunately it's not true when using the Liberation fonts - so if this causes problems feel free to revert it!
