It makes emacs use `overstriking' (drawing text again shifted by one
pixel) to simulate bold-face for fonts that have no bold version. The
same technique is used by programs such as gnome-terminal.
Presuming the code is correct, this has to be better than completely
failing to support boldness for these fonts. Thanks for thinking of
it.
