Scaled fonts are disappearing or drawn in unexpected size

    Description

      Attached example seems to drop W completely when run with Qt 5.10 on Ubuntu 16.04. Some older Qt versions show it positioned wrongly and way bigger than expected. The result also seems to vary between distributions so that it affects other characters too, which might indicate that this behavior comes from libfreetype.
