Ok, the problem is definitely in freetype. I don't know why it's not
reproducible with splash backend, since it uses freetype too, or am I
wrong?. 
I've downgraded the freetype version to 2.2.1 (9.10.3 based on
pkg-config) and it works with current cvs head. 

It's seems it's reproducible since freetype 2.3.0. Anybody know where to
report a bug? I haven't found anything in freetype.org.
