This is another issue than what I originally thought.

The outer most contour has only off-line points and is thus ignored when
trying to identify the orientation of the glyph.  This change was
introduced here:

I'll see if I can find the fonts mentioned there to test.

This mail is also forwarded to Zhe Su.

  Now I have a question about problem in bold rendering with some 
  font, for example VLGothic font (http://dicey.org/vlgothic/).

Attached is a font file which contains just the zero glyph of this

  Now I have a question about problem in bold rendering with some 
  font, for example VLGothic font (http://dicey.org/vlgothic/).
 
  See example in http://d.ma-aya.to/images/20060925_0.png .
  1st and 3rd line is non-bold font, 2nd and 4th are bold.
  0 font in 2nd line should be bold one, but it shapes thin,
  though.

This is a bug in the FreeType engine -- it can also be seen with the
current CVS.
