Ok. And how does it relate with "Xft.*" Xresources? Who does take the
precedence (and why)?

As a developer a would thought that that bug was about the _default_ wine
behavior. Making new behavior mandatory is a major change that I consider to be
regression. As always my considerations might (and actually does) differ with
ones the real wine developers have.

It's offtop here but that bug is actually not fixed. It is perfectly possible
to set antialias to "false" in ~/.fonts.conf (resulting in Qt3 and GTK apps to
stop using font smoothing) and still have got it enabled in wine-1.2-rc4 due to
Xft.antialias set to "true". Easily reproducible on my workstation, I may
provide the configuration details and proving screenshots if needed.
