I did my own investigation of the font files using version 0.4 of the
monospace. The Regular, Italic, and Bold are all 100% to-spec monospace
fonts. There is a small metrics bug in the Bold Italic which means it's
not quite a to-spec monospace font.

The odd thing is the applications which are picking the Bold Italic up
as the only weight, when in fact it's the only weight which isn't quite
right. So yes, we need to fix the Bold Italic, but it looks like we've
tickled some odd app bugs too.
