I have no idea how your layout engine works, but this approach looks
plain wrong to me. The advance x position must be calculated *after*
reshaping, since normally the reshaped glyphs look differently and
thus have a different width. In addition, if you use OpenType fonts,
the `GPOS' table can apply additional changes to the advance width if
necessary.
