Heiko: just open the file's XML, and see.
It has two text spans, having slightly different formatting (I didn't check
further than spotting a difference in East Asian fonts). This prevents the
formatting that is common to both spans (no bold) to merge.
But I fail to see what you are trying to achieve when insist on reproducing
from scratch. Th problem is in the span formatting that has a higher precedence
over cell formatting (the same way as character formatting has precedence over
paragraph formatting in Writer); this may come from some *conforming, valid*
ODF generators (even if LO UI makes it difficult to create such a markup from
scratch); and the question is - do we want to keep such behavior in Calc for
such runs, or do we want to change it. Regardless of the "repro from scratch"
steps. From UX perspective.</pre>
