No, it can't: you specified a particular font. The requirement
regarding the slant variant wasn't in your original complaint ;-)
Anyway, feel free to step through font_load_for_lface and its
subroutines, to figure out why your FreeSans font is rejected for
variable-pitch face. Maybe you will find something that could be
improved there.
