Just FYI: I had similar problems. Is suspected it happened after this
(from the changelog of the rpm):
[...]
* Do Apr 27 2006 Caolan McNamara <caolanm at redhat.com> - 1:2.0.2-5.8
[...]
- rh#189061# honour fontconfig autohint/hinting settings
[...]
I never got around to look at it closer. It only happened on one of my
machines (one that's not perfectly clean, so it might be a local issue...)
