Fiona,
If this important for you, I'd suggest you investigate what changes in
freetype are triggering this different rendering (it might be options
passed to the freetype api, or configuration/compile time options to
add/remove). Once you have nailed down the change, feel free to follow
up to this list and/or to a github issue so we can update the
mapserver codebase if necessary.
regards,
thomas
