Are there a couple of packages I should try to re-emerge?  Any hints
at all.  The fonts basically look really rough.  Like the opposite of
anti-aliased.  Aliased I guess.

Did you try deleting directories related to .kde.
Also try deleting .fonts.conf and .Xresources. I hope that you have not 
customised them and got messed up while using KDE.

Thank you so much Abhay.  Deleting .font.conf fixed it.
