Thank you :)

I switched to vrgb and how the shadows are gone.  Even Qt3 and Qt4 font are 
now the same.

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?

Thanks,

PS: how can one figure out which rgba mode is supported by the hardware?
