That's strange. I use them all the time! Can you reconfigure with
--enable-everything --disable-debug, and run with -cf /dev/null and
reproduce it? If it crashes, or does not work as expected it should be
fixed.

Not that I know of. Text should only become bold when the appropriate
escape sequence is given. This happens for example when you use syntax
highlighting in your text editor, other curses programs want to display
bold text, etc. (If you view any man page, you should see the section
headings in bold for instance).
