terminus at 8px has the same glyphs for Medium and Bold.  -> font bug
But srsly, at that size what do you want them to do?

Now, IF that bold font is removed, vte will use freetype's emboldening I guess.

In previous releases (F10 and older I guess) we were always using emboldening
and never tried to use the bold typeface.  So it "worked" before.  But I'm
not
sure emboldened 8px font is any readable.

Anyway, it's out of my jurisdiction.  Reassigning to terminus.
