Why does AIGLX complain when it's not being loaded (according to the
cited config)?

Anyway, I would start with checking
- is it Xft? Do have programs that use Xlib to write text (e.g. xterm)
the same problem? Is Xft up to date? Is freetype up to date?
Is /etc/fonts/conf.d/ in the desired state (not full of cruft like
mine)?
- is it your X server? Log in from a remote computer and use SSH X
forwarding to give it a try. Maybe running programs in Xnest is
sufficient to confirm whether it's your server.
