what's used; for example, pressing 'h' at the pager will show a page
with "SUMMARY OF LESS COMMANDS" at the top if it's less

This is the case on my system.


The issue does also still exists on Ubuntu 14.10 dev and I have now figured out 
that this issue only happens the first time the terminal is opened and after 
the pager scrolls up. This means the issue can be reproduced by opening a 
terminal, typing "man top", pressing the arrow down key and then pressing the 
arrow up key. Now the bold fonts are non-bold anymore and I'm also seeing the 
first time that some non-bold fonts got invisible.

I'm seeing this issue on lxterminal but not on xterm. gnome-terminal
doesn't start on my system.
