Subject: Re: 23.1; ns-antialias-text set to nil has no effect

Apologies for the immensely delayed response.  I still and have always had this problem since the initial report.

Repro steps:
1) Build Emacs bzr trunk (I used revno 99272), configured with: ./configure --with-ns --enable-ns-self-contained
2) Ensure that no emacs init files are in the current working environment.
3) 'open nextstep/Emacs.app'
4) M-X set-variable ns-antialias-text nil <RET>
5) Open a new frame

Expected results:
New frame opens with non-antialiased text.

Actual results:
Text is always antialiased regardless of the value of ns-antialias-text.

General notes:
My ultimate goal is to set ns-antialias-text in .emacs and have it take effect on the initial frame.

System notes:
MacOS X: 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard)
GCC: i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)
XCode version: 3.2.1
