Still crashing the last RPM you tried? Please comment in bugzilla.
I've replied there with all the information requested.
Ok. Then we know which update has been responsible for the regression you see on your system. Unfortunately the update contains huge changes (over about 3 months git master checkins), so it won't be easy to fix this issue. Therefore I can't make any promises to have this fixed until final release! And going back is no option ATM.
And the beta1 font rendering is pretty poor. I have work-arounds for both, but they are not tenable in the long term since they both require running alternate versions of packages in place of those that are part of the distribution.
We have
1) legal (*) 2) technical
issues with/when enabling Subpixel hinting.
How is it that you have (2) when I do not by the simple expedient of rebuilding the package with the proper configuration change?
That it works for you does not mean, that it works for all fonts. Subpixel rendering is currently broken in freetype2, believe me. This issue is under investigation and the feature won't be enabled again until we have fixed it.
