It's completely irrelevant whether the unhinted numerals have the same width
or not.  In a TrueType font, the hinting instructions modify the advance width
as needed, and this information is not available to the autohinter.

There are two possibilities: Either FreeType gets an option for the autohinting
module to instruct that some glyphs (numerals and probably some others too)
should have the same width, or the library which uses FreeType does this.  IMHO
it should be the latter.
