4.0.2 added the Xrender extension and Xft library that provide
this support.  It is dramatically improved in 4.0.3.

I do not recommend anyone use 4.0.2 at all as 4.0.3 is just a
stable update to 4.0.3 with no new code features, just bug fixes
and improvements.  4.0.2 is buggier all around and not worth the
trouble anymore now that 4.0.3 is out.
