I indeed used a too old Emacs (the Git HEAD of 14th March).
However, the current HEAD exhibits the same behaviour for me: No
subpixel rendering under Wayland on a low-res display if I compile
with --with-pgtk, and subpixel rendering without --with-pgtk.

Here is my configure output with --with-pgtk:
