Puppy already has font antialiasing for gtk 1.2 apps.
You just need to preload the libgdkxft.so library:
For example:

# LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libgdkxft.so dillo

Though gdkxft can be used for aa font is gtk1 apps it messes with the gtk2 apps and crashes them. At present I am using the patched gtk 1.2 on my system and I am able to use both gtk1 and gtk2 apps

I haven't experience any gtk2 apps crashing. Can you reproduce it?
