What a mess.

But it is "logical" bold, isn't it? So one could hack it in by providing
another 'char' argument for whichFont()... Not nice, though.

Can't these symbols get collected in a single font? (I still don't know
anything about fonts, so this question might be silly.)

How does LaTeX handle it? ... Let's have a look... - uh. I don't
understand the definition of \boldsymbol.
