Core Animation Unwanted Text Sharpening

Question

Whenever I add a layer for Core Animation either from the nib or programatically, the NSTextFields (labels) in my interface get messed up. Here's a screenshot from Apple's BasicCocoaAnimations example.

Note that if I add a layer in IB then it also gets messed up in IB itself before I even run my app. This happens on my 10.5.8 PowerPC Mac.
