<pre>As reported in:
<a href="https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-emoji/issues/36#issuecomment-356954653">https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-emoji/issues/36#issuecomment-356954653</a>
Looks like if a font is bitmap-only, and NO_HINTING is requested, we fail to
load the glyphs. Checking the code I see that is indeed the case in the
FcPattern codepath:
↦ /* Force embedded bitmaps off if no hinting requested */
↦ if (ft_options.base.hint_style == CAIRO_HINT_STYLE_NONE)
↦ bitmap = FcFalse;
↦ if (!bitmap)
↦ ft_options.load_flags |= FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP;
The fact that it's only done in that codepath is arbitrary to begin with.
Probably need to move somewhere closer to the actual glyph loading, and
excepted if the FT_Face has no outlines.</pre>
