[OS X TeX] Lucida and bold math

   Hi,

usually -- eg with Latin Modern or MtPro-fonts -- when writing
\boldsymbol $x+\sigma$ or $\bm{x+\sigma}$, you get just that,
the symbols "x + sigma" in bold.

Not so with Lucida and lucidabr.sty or the newer lucimatx.sty.
The bold sigma does not show up, the place is left empty.
You have to aks for \upsigma to get a bold sigma.

It took me quite some time to find this out.
My question is: Is this a bug or a feature?
And is it possible to point this out in the
documentation?
