In the case when there is no italic version of a font present in the system, the ft-font face will be created as a italic glyph for the character,it also creates the scaled font for that font-face so that next time if we want that font face we can quey the scaled font face.
 Now when the Variant font( small -caps ) is queried, the glyph that i get is not italic from the scaled font face.

Now your question  
So if we query and get the appropriate font, i.e with italic font, then again the font-face we create from the scaled font-face will not be italic.
