Xft had a bug which assumed that scalable fonts always returned outlines;
a simple fix was applied quite a while ago that requests outlines to avoid
this problem; this means you'll never get embedded bitmaps with the old
version of Xft.
Xft2 handles embedded bitmaps correctly -- disable anti-aliasing and
you'll get the embedded bitmaps when available.
