Description

"xscale" and "yscale" attributes in glifs are ignored when compiling variable font. For example, ᐈ (/u1408), ᐉ (/u1409) in https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-source/tree/master/src/NotoSansCanadianAboriginal seems strange while the Weight axis larger than 400. But it is not affected while compiling masters (without '-o variable' argument).

The top one is the variable font in weight 900. The bottom one is the "Bold" master.
Both of them are compiled with fontmake.
