Comment (by tidux):
Debian fontconfig changelog shows RGBA hinting was available as a runtime
configuration option as early as 2004:

master.debian.org/changelogs/main/f/fontconfig/fontconfig_2.11.0-6.7_changelog
Fedora has allowed RGBA hinting as a runtime configuration basically as
long as Debian has. Fedora 24 and later defaults to RGBA hinting, as
referenced in the "return to defaults" section of this article:
