Bug Description
When anti-aliasing is turned off (either via the gnome settings or via
.fonts.conf), the font becomes distorted. It makes it so you can't read anything
at all until you turn anti-aliasing on again. Attaching a screenshot.

horrible font rendering
Note that when you hover the mouse over the garbled text it returns into a
readable text. The problem is not isolated to firefox and seem to happen almost
every time an application writes more than a paragraph of text.
