Testing, I find that FreeType 2.13.3 passes, but for FreeType >= 2.14.0, FT_New_Face() returns Invalid_File_Format, a.k.a "broken file". The test file is a font generated by OSS-Fuzz though, so there is no reason it has to be a valid file.
I've updated the test to specifically catch "broken file" for FreeType >= 2.14.0.
As background, the test was originally added in #6846. Coincidentally, it also had a with pytest.raises(OSError):, intending to catch a "Bitmap missing for glyph" error raised by Pillow, but #8324 removed the error itsell.
