Hello.

According to my investigation, FT_Render_Glyph() was not called
even if FT_GlyphSlot_Oblique() was called.

=========
     if (ftglyph->format == FT_GLYPH_FORMAT_OUTLINE) {
         FT_Render_Glyph(ftglyph, FT_LOAD_TARGET_MODE(target)); <<===
     }
=========

It seemed FT_Load_Glyph() and renderFlags affected this issue.

On my Windows,
For "MS Mincho" with italic, renderFlags was "FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO | 
FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP | FT_LOAD_RENDER".
I also tested "Meiryo" font (it could handle italic style)
For "Meiryo" with italic, renderFlags was "FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO | 
FT_LOAD_RENDER".

I think, after FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP is turned on, FT_LOAD_RENDER should be 
turned off.
So how about following fix ?
