I've seen the exact same rendering issue as well. In my case it happens
when using the "Ubuntu Mono" font. It only happens on the target hardware
using EGLFS (original beagleboard).

It's rather ugly, happens "randomly", and is especially visible on the
forward slash character ("/"). I didn't have time to investigate further so
I just chose another font for the time being.

I think you should report it as a bug (https://bugreports.qt-project.org).

Cheers,
Ola
