[h-e-w] Antialiased fonts in emacs 23.2 for windows

[Damyan Pepper]

I've posted about this on stackoverflow but was wondering if someone
on this list might know more about what's going on here.

I'm having trouble getting antialiased fonts to work correctly in
emacs 23.2, to the extent that it appears that it doesn't actually
support antialised fonts.

If I do the following in emacs 23.1:

(set-face-font 'default "DejaVu Sans Mono-9.0:antialias=subpixel")
(describe-font nil)

Then this reports the full name as "DejaVu Sans
Mono-9.0:antialias=subpixel", and the font looks nice and smooth.

However, doing the same thing in emacs 23.2 gives the full name as
"DejaVu Sans Mono-9.0" and the font looks nasty and chunky.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?
