Quite possibly it's working as intended.  I just didn't expect it to be that way.

The point was: if hb_font is only needed during face-wise autohinter setup,
would be better to destroy the font after that.  Currently the font is stored
in AF_FaceGlobals, which means it will be kept open for the duration of the
FT_Face.  Nothing wrong with it though.
