With standard X, e17 uses shaped windows which cannot use anti-aliasing.
It's a limitation of the way X is set up. One thing you can try is
enabling the composite extension in your X server, using the bling

enlightenment_remote -use-composite-set 1

This will give you what you're looking for. All warnings about stability
