I imagine this is helpful on Windows with the platform's subpar font quality, but on OS X fonts have always been very readable — this commit reduces quality of the text on OS X significantly. Any way to restrict this to Windows?

Can you show a before and after comparison? If this reduces the text quality on OS X then it sounds to me like that platform is the one with subpar font handling as all this does is adjust character positioning.
