As for the missing bold, it seems there's a bug in the naming scheme:
Ii the bold italic file gets read from the disk before the bold, then
you don't get the right entries. It so happens that most of the fonts
in that dir had bold before bold italic, e.g.
fontnames | identifying ttf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdanai.ttf
fontnames | identifying ttf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdana.ttf
fontnames | identifying ttf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdanaz.ttf
fontnames | identifying ttf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdanab.ttf
fontnames | identifying otf font
/usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Bold Italic.otf
fontnames | identifying otf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri.otf
fontnames | identifying otf font
/usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Italic.otf
fontnames | identifying otf font
/usr/share/fonts/vista/C-series/Calibri Bold.otf
So, I've added some extra code (patch attached) to print the names it
adds to the hash. As you can see there is a clash: both bold italic
and bold want to "own" bold...
fontnames | identifying ttf font /usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdanaz.ttf
add | verdana bold italic -> {ttf, Verdana Bold Italic,
/usr/share/fonts/vista/Verdanaz.ttf, ...}

I don't know how to fix since it's not clear to me what names you
actually want...
