Though ideally it should be fixed in the font, I'm not sure if it
should be also fixed in fontconfig, because we picks it up from
freetype and it still appears as long as applications uses freetype
APIs.

BTW what the real problem with it? it looks like fontconfig still
deals with it as Bold though.
