As far as I know, it is described in:

  
http://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-glyph_management.html#FT_GlyphRec

and has been for some time. The documentation for FT_Glyph_Transform also
states that the 2x2 matrix is applied to the advance width as well as the
glyph outline..

Hope this helps,
