A gtk port means fontconfig and AA ie all the users that do not use pure
american files on a 75dpi screen can get some mileage out of emacs
without ruining their eyes.

fontconfig support is the single reason several people (including me)
dumped emacs/xemacs altogether for vim/gvim recently. I'm amazed someone
can maintain like you that fontconfig is a bad choice for text apps -
surely an app that's devoted to displaying text is *more* sensitive to
the text rendering tech than your average ogg player.
