No problems so far, but I offer the same to you :)
However, the fact that the font rendering differs if rgba is set to rgb and do not if it's set to vrgb sounds like black magic to me. I would really like to figure out what is going on.

Can you please try rgb instead of vrgb, just for comparison?
I do this and there was not such a difference as for you and i have definitely no shadows. The most and only difference is in the konsole (Dejavu Sans Mono).
Can you please send a screenshot, i.e. of qtconfig, to me off list? It might help me.
PS: how can one figure out which rgba mode is supported by the hardware?
In a perfect world it is in the manual of your monitor. But as example i have a NEC 2190UXp (connected with DVI to a GeForce 7600 GS and driver version 169.09) and instead the manual says that it use rgb it looks better with vrgb. So i must say that in the most cases i prefer my normal try&error game:
I did the same until now. I hoped there is a command which reads this info from the hardware.
... if you realy wants this here be the links which helps me in the past (i hope my suspicion that you can understand german is correct):
