I would hope that would be true of all rendering engines, e.g. FreeType, Cairo, Blender Cycles etc. Gamma and colour profiling are issues for on-screen display, image input and image storage/interchange formats. And in the latter, one would expect that this information can be stored non-destructively, i.e. without having to alter stored pixel values. Rendering calculations are easiest if pixels are considered to be in a linear colour space.
