System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.17134 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 1060 6GB/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 417.71

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.80 (sub 59), branch: blender2.8, commit date: 2019-04-25 06:02, hash: 6d09fa3577
Worked: unknown (never?)

Short description of error
In search for a replacement of the dropped dupli frames feature I noticed that unlike when using the dupli frames feature for 2.7x, constraints are not applied when using dupli faces (or verts) in both 2.80 and the 2.79b release (f4dc9f9d68) which is at least unexpected (formerly inconsistent) behaviour if not an actual bug and could be of special importance since having to use this as an dupli frames replacement option.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Set any mesh (cube) as the parent of some other mesh (suzanne). On the "cube" mesh activate instancing -> faces and on the "suzanne" mesh enable some object constraints e. g. limit rotations.
