I see this too:

   $ fc-match 'Droid Sans-10:bold'   # 2.12.6
   DroidSans-Bold.ttf: "Droid Sans" "Bold"
   $ fc-match 'Droid Sans-10:bold'   # 2.13.0 (with or without patch)
   DroidSans.ttf: "Droid Sans" "Regular"

User documentation explictly mentions examples like 'Times-12:bold' so I
believe that the above syntax should work.
