I tried this approach on my system, but it didn't work. Did I make an
error?
On Debian Wheezy, here is the ~/.fonts.conf. I intended to have
antialiasing on by default, but off when "Monospace" font is chosen.

At first glance it looks like you assign antialias=true with a
target="font" rule. This is applied later than any target="pattern"
rule. (fontconfig first substitutes the pattern from the application
according to target="pattern" rules, then picks a font (**), and then
modifies that font according to target="font" rules.)
This could be fixed by putting the antialias=true edit (or the whole
upper block) in a target="pattern" rule, above the antialias=false rule.
But note that this might give you different match results (but normally
this is negligible) because some properties might also be used in the
match (**).
