User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0
Build ID: 20130116073211

Steps to reproduce:

The text of gmail's "Inbox" label (its called "Posteingang" in the german version) is antialised strangely with Firefox. Instead of interpolating the red glyphs with the white background, it looks a bit like the antialising bits are calculated for a black/gray glyph color. Chrome as well as Opera seem to get this right.
Please see the attached screenshot.

This happens in Fedora-17+updates with the intel driver, however I can rule out driver bugs, as it is still visible with NoAccel (=disables any hw acceleration for 2d rendering).
Could you try a Nightly build to confirm if it's present too, please?
