The "official" mozilla bits don't use Xft or the Render extension, nor do 
they support subpixel decimation.  Chris Blizzard occasionally builds
a version of Mozilla that does use Xft:

	ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/experimental/xft/

This doesn't use XftConfig as it's based on Xft2 -- it installs a private 
fonts.conf file (which you can link to the regular /etc/fonts/fonts.conf 
file).
