1 I understand that freetype-2.7 enabled by default the code that emulates
2 the so called ClearType technique on Windows (a.k.a. blurry fonts).
3 In older versions that code was turned on with the "infinality" USE
4 flag.

6 "infinality" is still there but now there is also a new
7 "cleartype_hinting" flag. I am confused. Can anyone explain exactly
8 what each of these flags do and how they interact?
