One more thing: I disagree with Stuart's diagnosis that this is a problem
related to LO's *synthetic* italics.

On my system -- which should also apply to everyone else, as DejaVu only has
this one form of distribution, and it's also bundled with LO -- DejaVu Sans
(same situation with the other two problematic fonts, Sans Mono and Sans
Condensed) is represented by four separate TTF files: DejaVuSans.ttf for
regular, DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf for italic, DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf for bold, and
DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf for bold-italic.  There should be no reason for LO
to synthesize italic forms from the regular forms, instead of just using the
italic font directly.
