I tried setting my desktop fonts all to DejaVu Sans to remove the ambiguity, but it seems that programs (in particular notification-daemon) are still using an italic form of Condensed rather than the Italic variant.
So maybe this is a bug in DejaVu Sans. I also notice that there is no Condensed Italic, and Condensed Bold is in fact listed twice. Strange!
