I was already using FontSmoothing=2 which was some improvement over 
nothing, but I didn't know these other settings. FontSmoothingType=2 made 
things much better, the others didn't seem to have any effect.

However, I then discovered that with FontSmoothingType=2, a Java app I run 
in Wine crashes when it opens. :(  The interesting item out of the Java 
stack trace is:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 0 incompatible with 
Text-specific LCD contrast key

Quite why Java is getting involved at this level I don't really know. 
Running on Windows with the same font smoothing settings it works fine.

Puzzling ...
