Actually, your question was already answered in the FT2 FAQ at
  http://www.freetype.org/ft2faq.html#autohint-work

When a font driver supports a scalable format and doesn't provide its
own hinter, the auto-hinter is used by default (when it is enabled, of
course). Otherwise, the driver's hinter is used, unless you set the
flag FT_LOAD_FORCE_AUTOHINT..
