I did not, but the first impression was the font rendering has changed a little
bit, but I'm not 100% sure. Probably it did not. At least I can say "MLAA"
never appeared in Xorg log, but I'm not sure if it had to... I may perform a
dumb check if it is important: compile 8.0.4 back then switch MLAA on and off
via driconf to see if there is any real difference... or you may suggest a
smarter way...
