The above analysis was (of course) wrong... It was a sythetic font. I've
just committed three simple patches to the z1 driver: synthetic fonts now
get rendered! (Or at least, the few I have here pass through unharmed...)

HOWEVER, although the correct (obliqueing) /FontMatrix is read correctly,
it does not seem to be used, even though the following lines from
Z1_Load_Glyph() do get executed:

        /* apply the font matrix */
        FT_Outline_Transform( &glyph->root.outline,
                              &face->type1.font_matrix );

(and face->type1.font_matrix _does_ contain the correct matrix.)

Autohinting or not makes no difference.

Anyone have a clue?
