With the new font backend, redisplay is so slow that Emacs is unusable
on an AMD Athlon 550 MHz (Windows2kSP4), and takes a good share of CPU
on a 2 GHz Pentium M (XPSP2).

The effect is more serious on certain applications (Gnus, ERC) although
it is bad enough while editing or viewing C/C++/Elisp source files.

For now, I'll use --disable-font-backend.
