They're not that bad, particularly when compared to the versions
rendered from the URW outline fonts.

I'm currently doing this sort of thing in my .fonts.conf to use the
bitmap versions for non-antialiased text and the freefont outline
equivalents for antialiased text when "Times" is specified:

<match>         
        <test name="family"><string>Times</string></test>
        <test name="antialias"><bool>true</bool></test>
        <edit name="family" binding="strong">
                <string>FreeSerif</string>
        </edit>
</match>
