FreeType only renders anti-aliased glyphs with 256 gray levels. It's up to a higher-level library to correctly integrate this to avoid any colour distortions.

You should contact the X11 people.

The color around where the text is rendered is altered in most color combinations of background and text.
This is visible at 8bit color depth, true color mode.
I have not tested other color depths.

Tested as built in to Xorg
X Window System Version 7.1.1
Debian Etch

Attached is an X configuration file which can be used like
X :1 -ac -config XConfiguration-8Bit.txt
